Annotation The paper is devoted to the analysis of modern Russian Sinology problems of in the discursive field of Chinese scientists’ researches. The paper is aimed at determining the content and problems of Russian Sinology as a scientific direction. At the present stage, the Chinese discourse of Russian Sinology contains a wide range of topics that reflect the scale, depth and directions of relations between China and Russia. The analysis of this discourse will allow us to assess its content and thematic focus, identify research methods for Russian Sinology, little-studied areas, and clarify current problems. Based on the digital tools of the search system of the National Database of Chinese Knowledge Network, the author has selected 139 articles of the specified time period, carried out a bibliometric analysis of their texts, and made general description and classification. The areas and topics of research are specified: history, culture, philology, ways of integrating the Chinese language into the Russian national education system, teaching the Russian language in China, problems and trends in the development of Russian Sinology. The paper presents the most important results of research by Chinese scientists on this issue. It is concluded that Russian Sinology in Chinese scientific discourse is framed as a separate complex interdisciplinary branch of national research. Over the past thirty years, significant results have been achieved in this direction, promoting academic and cultural exchanges between China and Russia. The accumulated research potential can serve as a resource for further promising projects. In conclusion, the author analyzes the outstanding achievements and limitations of the research and proposes solutions that will contribute to further academic Sino-Russian exchanges in the field of Chinese studies.
