The social significance of scientific and pedagogical activity derives from the very essence of this highly differentiated function in contemporary society. The social and cultural progress of mankind is inconceivable without scientific research and implies at the same time the constant, systematic training and education under the guidance of our scientists of new generations of qualified specialists and figures of science in a wide variety of areas of modern life. That is why our country so appreciates the work of its scientists; that is why anniversaries in the lives of our scientists and teachers, marking a long streak of legendary hard and fruitful work, become celebrations not only of the narrow circle of their students and figures of the known field of knowledge, but grow into major social events that attract and thrill all who care about the fate of science and social progress.
