Abstract
On the basis of the report by O. Molyarenko presented at the conference “T. I. Zaslavskaya Memorial Lectures in Novosibirsk”. The author outlined some aspects of the statistical and other quantitative information collecting, which cause it’s mis-reporting and distorting and, ultimately, twist the description of real situation in the perception of the government bodies. One of the consequences of such distortions is the ever-deepening isolation between the authorities and the people.
