Abstract

Based on an analysis of the current civil, investment, contract and antimonopoly legislation of the Russian Federation, key official and doctrinal positions regarding the concept of a scientific consortium are assessed.

The main features of the concept of a scientific consortium are identified, which make it possible to distinguish it from related categories of joint scientific and support activities.

The definition of the concept of “scientific consortium”, proposed for enshrinement in Art. 2 of the Federal Law of August 23, 1996 No. 127-FZ “On Science and State Scientific and Technical Policy.”

It is proposed to use the corresponding definition in order to eliminate gaps in domestic contract and antimonopoly legislation, legislation on science, which reduce the effectiveness of antimonopoly measures in the field of public procurement of R&D and measures for the development of scientific cooperation.

The rule-making solutions proposed by the authors are aimed at increasing the efficiency of science financing by including scientific consortia among the participants in public procurement and eliminating barriers that prevent citizens engaged in scientific activities from participating in procurement.
