Abstract
The fundamental study is dedicated to the reflexive justification of the logic[1]content architectonics of concenters i n methodology – philosophical and philosophical-psychological, which establish the thematic-conceptual integrity of the structure and content of the final (fifth) volume of the author’s anthology “System of Modern Methodologies” (2015, 2021), intended for applicants of the third (educational and scientific) level of training from the academic training of philosophy doctors in various specialties. The main idea of the mutual rational and cultural enrichment of both considered sciences is their essential dialectical interpenetration, when psychology will be able to solve its own key problems and the most difficult tasks only by using the latest achievements of philosophical methodology, instead, the latter will be able to get out of the objectified in the texts, a meaningfully distilled and personally detached state only under the conditions of using the productive possibilities of psychology as a field of humanities and, first of all, as an all-encompassing sphere of thought activity and in this way will discover its own freedom-practice – a co-vital, thought-communicative, wisdom-giving met hodology . The object of scientific construction is the architectural-concentric organization of methodological works of leading thinkers of the past and present in two thematic directions: a) fundamentals and prospects for the development of philosophical methodology and b) innovative means and heuristic resources of professional methodology, which represent the binary complementarity of multi-circle formations with common centers. These complexly structured formations constitute a vast subject field of realized thinking-activity with inseparable poles of materiality, namely, the world of methodology as the possibility of expanded consciousness, which is justified by I. Kant’s transcendental methodology, and the sphere of methodology as the reality of its living existence, which presents an exceptionally thorough methodological study of the historical significance of L. S. Vygotsky’s psychological crisis. From the specified poles-focuses peculiar thematic-content circles (texts) of different cultural importance depart. Thus, on the one hand, six methodological centers of an increasingly expanded format of worldview action are highlighted. These are clearly categorized works: J.-P. Sartre and M. Heidegger’s works about the essence of humanism, which were made in the realm of existential direction, but in different dimensions and styles of philosophizing; M. O. Berdyaev’s works about philosophical truth and intellectual truth, but with an amendment to the paradoxical and organic nature of lies; M. M. Bakhtin and O. Ye. Samoilov’s works about a single and exceptional being-event as a way of human presence in the event architecture of a real act and, accordingly, about dialogic positioning in relation to the same object of understanding in the form of posing a theoretical problem, and about the use of ideas as a means of thinking; I. Lakatos’ works on the philosophical insight into the history of science and its well-known rational reconstructions with a focus on the advantages of the authors’ methodology of research programs; our works (A. F.) on meta-theoretical mosaic of the life of consciousness and methodological reconstruction of the system-thought-activity approach to its understanding as an attributive way of human essentiality and as a quasi-objective reality of the newest methodology; and in conclusion, we presented for the first time the newly created categorical matrix of vitacultural methodology as a canonical form of methodology in general, which constitutes the newest, philosophically oriented and rational-humanitarian worldview map of the latest methodological knowledge and, in the case of its skillful application, turns into a powerful tool of professional methodology. On the other hand, the philosophical and psychological content of the six (including the thematically relevant afterword) methodology concenters, which symbolize the gradual expansion of circles of a number of fundamental works , is clarified: S. L. Rubinstein and M. S. Huseltseva’s works on the essence of the principle of creative self-activity, which indicates a way to solve one radical problem – the relationship between objective existence and the subject of consciousness, and about the real achievements of the century-long development of the subject-activity approach in the succession of his (S. L.) three periods methodological creativity: neo-Kantian, Marxist, and anthropological (existential); H. P. Shchedrovytskyi and A. V. Furman’s works about intellectual sources, basic concepts, categorical means, system foundations, reproductive and activity schemes, logical principles, organizational norms and invariants of the multi-conscious positioning of the general theory of activity, as well as about the results of reflexive and practical reconstruction of this theory according to the logic of the ever-growing methodological reflection and with the help of meta-methodological optics constructed by the author, which made it possible to update the existing mosaic of ideas and themes, concepts and concepts, foundations and principles, ideas and constructs, concepts and categories, thinking schemes and models, matrices and paradigms; our development of multi-parameter models of methodological optics of classical, non-classical and post-classical scientific rationality as versatile tools of thinking; Yu. I. Yakovenko and O. Ye. Furman’s works about the urgent problems of the emergence of the methodology of social and humanitarian sciences in two aspects – about the occurrence of the unpleasant fact of methodological trauma and the conditions for overcoming it, and about the methodologically expedient enrichment of the conceptual and terminological field of the relevant categories of space and time in the dialectical complementarity of induction and deduction methods based on the author’s theory of innovative and psychological climate in organizations; H. P. Shchedrovytskyi and A. V. Furman, and O. Ye. Furman’s works about the prospects for the co-mobilization of epistemological and reflexive-interpretive resources for the development of psychology and methodology and about an alternative to the scientific-objective understanding of psychology as a universe of human co-vitality and therefore as a special worldview based on the four-stage logic of establishing a strategy of psychological thinking; the author’s work on the multi-source argumentation of the emergence in the near future of an exceptionally popular profession of a methodologist, who will have an expanded horizon of the ideal materiality of consciousness in its special environment – the uniquely self-organized reality of methodological thinking, which enables constantly renewing reflexivity and perfect methodology in thought and action. As a result, it is concluded that the advent of the methodology runs along a so far unexplored highway course of cognition, design, scripting and creation of local oases of modular-developmental space-time of motivated existence of descending, transcendentally harmonized and functionally interrelated, at least four substantial realities of the individual or team realization of life: awareness – reflection – thinking – reasoning
