Abstract
The article presents design of historical study of the Russian pharmaceutical market, setting timeline in the nineties — the time of formation of social and cultural characteristics of this phenomenon. At the same time, the authors return to the post-Soviet period and the nineties to see starting positions as well as mutations of original idea. The article is structured by the framework format of dissertation abstract. This frame contains the following elements: research questions, assessment of state of research field, working hypotheses, the author's vision of social and scientific significance of the study being conducted and observations made. The definition of the research genre as dystopia is explained by its deconstruction of the palimpsest of memory testimonies of pharmaceutical market actors.
