Summary/Abstract: In 1987, which was seen as marking 25 years from what was considered to be the beginning of semiotics proper (under this name) in the Soviet Union in 1962, volume 20 of the journal Sign Systems Studies (Труды по знаковым системам) asked the main members of the Tartu–Moscow school of semiotics for their responses to the following three questions (Ivanov et al. 1987): 1. What are the scientific results achieved during this time that you consider the most significant? 2. What areas of research do you consider the most promising in the future? 3. What are the scientific hopes that were pinned in the 1960s on semiotics, but that, in your opinion, did not materialize?
