On a basis of analysis of documentary sources it is traced the status of the Ukrainian Academy of Science – All-Ukrainian Academy of Science under different political regimes that were in power within the given period. Frist of all, it is about the limits of self-governance of the Academy, about support, or vice versa, the restrictions of traditional academic freedoms by the government. Here it is noted that the state administration of science, scientific activities, and therefore of the Academy of Sciences is not identical with the concept of "governmentalisation" in negative terms. Research shows that the state government, whatever there is its social and political orientation, does not leave science out of its interests. And vice versa, scientists as subjects of scientific work did not imagene their activities out of the interests of the state, society with its requests. General conclusion is next: despite difficulties of objective and subjective character, founders of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences laid in basis of its concept the principles that have still remained viable.
