The present work analyses the reforms of cultural institutions financing system in Russia from the mid 1980s to the present time. A short review of the government’s activities is given in respect of transition from purely state financing to multichannel system of forming cultural institutions’ budgets, changing their legal nature, and developing their commercial activities. Processes of management decentralization and reallocation of financing onto budgets of various levels are considered. Special attention is paid to introduction of market mechanisms into activities of such institutions, problems connected with their application are touched as well. Both positive and negative consequences of the policy pursued by the government in matters of financing the culture at different stages of the reforms are investigated. The analysis result indicates that preservative tendencies prevail in the government’s activity in the cultural sphere, and budgetary funds still make the basis of the budget in the most part of cultural institutions, conservatism and inertness in their activities remain.
