| Summary: | This article presents an overview of the school-conference of young scholars, held on 24 – 25 November, 2020 at the Institute of Russian History of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The aims of the forum for scholars are to establish communication between young researchers from Russia and other countries, and to maintain links between the generations of experienced historians and junior scholars, which is a key element in preserving the continuity of generations in historical science. In 2020, the schoolconference was dedicated to the 75th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War. Problems of military history took central place during the forum: keynote speeches were held by leading researchers; a collection of documents on the history of the liberation of the Crimea was presented during a special session; and a round table “Man and war (to the 75th anniversary of the Victory)” took place. During sectional sessions, young researchers highlighted a wide range of issues devoted to the history of Russia from ancient times to the present day.
