The theory of research programs and methodology of epis - temological programs

Abstract

Since an antiquity epoch, human informative activity began to be made
out in the form of programs. Such programs appeared in the field of knowledge, however
the purpose had the practical. The methodology of epistemological programs represents
a new way of studying of essence of time. In the methodological plan it is necessary
to carry out its comparison with other methods of studying of a science, in particular,
with such methods of historical school, as a paradigm and the research program. The
methodology of epistemological programs classifies a science and scientific activity on
other bases. As a result of this approach it appears that the historical school of studying
of a science represents an example not absolutely successful and not finished program.
The problems of programs of historical school it is connected, first of all, by that
during its evolution the science has appeared the same form of public consciousness,
as religion and church. Hence, the science has lost the specificity on which basis it has
been allocated, exists and carries out special functions in our world. As to the theory
of research programs of Lakatos it has appeared not scientific, and not research. The
concept of the program is wider than the approach offered and realised by Lakatos.
