Voprosy upravleniya / Management Issues, 2019, 290-302 Abstract: The research, the results of which are presented in this article, is carried out in accordance with the grant of the RFBR under the project "Public reproduction policy of academic personnel”. One of the objectives of the study is the monitoring of legislative acts devoted to the development of science and state support of research conducted by young scientists, with the aim to perform a reflection of the subjects of science and state support of young scientists in legislative texts of modern Russia. Thirty-eight strategic level documents have been issued since 2005, according to the Consultant Plus information system. The analysis included the following documents: Federal concepts, plans, strategies (5 sources); descriptions, recommendations, passports (2 sources); legislative acts of the Ministry of Education and Science (4 sources); resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation (11 sources); Orders Rosstat (3 source); Decrees of the President of the Russian Federation (6 sources); the Federal Laws of the Russian Federation (2 sources); Regional legislative acts of the Sverdlovsk re-gion (5 sources). The study uses the method of content analysis of texts of legislative acts using the technique of semantic analysis and the construction of thematic networks. ATLAS.ti 8 computer programs were used to process the information in this study, which allow to evaluate the frequency and volume of words in the text, and TextAnalyst-2.0, which allows to build thematic semantic networks, assessing the inter-connectedness of a particular word with other words of the text. The article presents three important conclusions indicating the problem for the further direction of the study of the development of public policy in relation to the support of young scientists. First, the differences in the interpretation of the concept of “science” in the semantic structures of the texts of various legislative acts of modern Russia are revealed. Secondly, in the texts of the legislative acts at the Federal and regional levels there is almost no mention of the term “young scientist”, which allows to make a conclusion about incomplete conceptualization of this concept and, consequently, a lack of elaboration of strategies, technologies and measures of the state support of young scientists. Thirdly, in the texts of Presidential Decrees and Government Resolutions, the main vector of interpretation of the concept of “science” in the modern Russian authorities is the Declaration of the state order for technological breakthrough and modernization of science in the field of technology, which indicates the lack of attention of the state to the development of the humanities and social sciences.
