neutral  Susan Welsh: This sounds very "Russian." The word "schemes," in particular, would only be used this way in English in the most turgid academic writing (if at all).

  -> May be you are right. Anyway thank you!

agree  Roman Bardachev: I like habitual. I'd perhaps replace 'schemes' with 'patterns' though

familiar analytical formulas of this type


Explanation:
It would be nice to know what precisely the схемы are, before deciding if they represent a "framework," "patterns," or maybe "formulas." Also, if we knew what the antecedent of "подобных" was, it would be easier to tell if "of this type" or "such" or "this kind of" would work better.

That's strange, about the previous paragraph being irrelevant, because you'd think "подобных" must refer to something.

While I generally dislike "schemes," as being overused, it might be right in this context, now that you mention "interpretive schemes." In Google books, you can find nearly 7000 sociology and poli sci books containing "interpretive schemes," including one on Sovietology:
"Not only are the 'factual' products of Soviet research assimilated into Western discourse, but Soviet interpretive schemes have also played an important role in the formation of the conceptual outlook of Western scholarship."

Ditto for "analytical schemes" (5400+ in Google books):
"Contemporary specialists on communist politics have available to them, in addition to these models and analytical schemes — what is at least as important — a rich collection of events and decisions of the later 1960s, 1970s, ..."

Notes to answerer
Asker: unfortunately, the text does not go into detail on this topic. this is the first sentence of a paragraph and the previous paragraph is not directly relevant. later in the same paragraph, however, интерпретативные схемы советологического образца are mentioned.

Explanation:
Why not? Liberties taken? Perhaps, but that's the idea.
