Abstract
The article analyzes the contemporary stage in the historiography of P. N. Milyukov’s scholarly legacy. Based on a historiographical analysis, it is shown that the expansion of the source base and the decline of politicized assessments have facilitated a transition from fragmentary and evaluative interpretations to a more comprehensive consideration of Milyukov’s views as a historian, thinker, and public figure. The article identifies the persistent fragmentation of recent historiography, manifested in the separate examination of individual aspects of P. N. Milyukov’s concept and the absence of a synthetic approach to its interpretation. The conclusion emphasizes the significant heuristic potential of his legacy and the necessity of its further comprehensive study within the context of the development of Russian historical thought.
