Abstract
Aim. To identify the ideological prerequisites, reasons, and conditions for the formation of emigration from Russia during the Civil War of 1918–1922 and after it in their philosophical understanding.
Methodology. The study was conducted using a systems approach, historical and philosophical reconstruction, and hermeneutics.
Results. It has been established that one of the most striking examples of the operation of dialectical philosophical development laws is the revolutionary events of 1917 in Russia and the ensuing Civil War, which triggered an unprecedented scale of Russian emigration abroad.
Research implications. The results of the study can be used to improve the historical and philosophical competencies of both teachers and students of philosophy disciplines.
