Abstract

Introduction. The purpose of the study is to assess the significance and substantiate the humanistic nature of the creative heritage of A. A. Bogdanov in the new social reality.

Bogdanov; critical comparison of the theoretical and methodological approaches existing in modern science to understanding the basic ideas of the scientist; revealing their theoretical and practical significance, taking into account the new social reality.
