The paper deals with the state and prospects of Russian-American Relations’ History Studies (pre-Soviet period) in contemporary Russia. The author stresses the high level of the Soviet studies in this field during the Cold War period. High professional standards dramatically declined in the transitory years of perestroika but now we are witnessing obvious signs of their renaissance followed by spreading of innovative spirit in the field. It seems that prospects for studies of Russian-American Relations are unlimited in all and every direction.
