The museum space of Siberia is analyzed in the context of state and society integration for the first time in the historical dynamics. The state museum management, a key problem of museum activity, has not received proper development both at nationwide and regional levels of research. The author’s approach to study the problem in the museum space context is highlighted as relevant. The article determines foundations of the museum network formation in the late XVIII - early XX centuries: effective state and society interaction, active position of patrons, intelligentsia representatives, and population in Siberia. In the 1930s-1940s priorities in the state museum policy were: creating museums of a historical and revolutionary profile and industrial character, reflecting the socialism achievements, involving the educated public in ideological and educational work with the population. The author presents the leading trends of the museum sphere development in the 1960s-1980s: interdependence between ideological demand and funding, organization of museums of different departmental affiliation, social needs to preserve and reproduce historical and cultural values. The cultural policy and development strategies of the regional museum space in the first decade of the XXI century are associated with multichannel financing, fundraising technologies, adaptation of museums to the market economy, implementation of targeted programs and national projects. The model of the state and society interaction based on enhancing the potential of each region in the historical and cultural heritage development field under the interaction of federal and local authorities, as well as inclusion of museums in the areas of branding territories, publishing, and Internet space are relevant and promising.
