HUMANITIES SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE IN THE MODERN WORLD

Human society has come a long way, accumulating knowledge about the surrounding reality and gradually deepening and detailing its picture of the world. Today, science plays a major role in it, forming a special – scientific – picture of the world. Science itself not only acts as one of the forms of social consciousness, but also develops objective knowledge about reality and engages in its further systematization. The history of human development allows us to say that in developed societies questions of studying man, his place in the world, and relationships between people aroused great interest. And these questions have not lost their relevance today. Moreover, in modern realities, trends aimed at preserving humanitarian values are becoming particularly relevant. In this regard, humanitarian scientific knowledge also comes to the fore. After all, it not only has an impact on the perception of a person and his life in society, but also allows one to discover additional value meanings.
