Image of Researcher in Modern Sociology

The development of social sciences and humanities as a whole, particularly, that of sociology, has entailed certain difficulties lately. They are mainly connected with the self-identification of this field of knowledge and the search for some #methodological ideal#. The latter traditionally means working out the common polyparadigmatic principles for the exploration of social and cultural reality. When doing it, the image of researcher has been lost in the space of scientific investigations. What is a modern sociologist? What are the verges of his or her reflection of world outlook and what are the verges of his or her social reception? The answers to these and other questions are quite vital. It is evident that sociology acquires more the status of science dealt with societies; ontological personality traits have been put off and are in the background, so they are weakly actualized. Such preponderance of external world, and not that of inner one, points to the state of crisis in Russian sociology.
