Abstract
For representatives of the scientific community, the role of the intellectual environment in the development of researchers and scientific schools is obvious. However, the author of this article states that the intellectual environment is an important factor for the development of society as a whole as well. The article characterizes theoretical and applied problems the solutions to which require the “environmental” approach. The dynamics of creative intellectual environments in modern Russia is considered on the basis of empirical data.
