University Educational Communities: the Theoreti-Cal Framework of the Study

Turning to the theoretical foundations of studying the main university educational communities is associated with the need to find a way to solve the problems of fragmentation of university educational communities in the field of scientific activity. The need to study the interaction of university educational communities was determined by the purpose of the article — the analysis of the theoretical framework for the study of university educational communities and the main method — the analysis of middle-level theories that describe the functioning of university educational communities, the organization of their scientific activities, research practices and methods of interaction in the scientific space. On this basis, interpretations of the key terms of the concept of optimal interaction between university educational communities in the university scientific space are proposed: scientific capital, scientific and educational activities, communities of scientific and pedagogical workers, students, administrative and managerial workers. The conclusion is made about the need for their further study from the standpoint of their action and interaction as an independent scientific task.
