Ideological foundations and problems of the methodology of history
( Pp. 16-21)

The objective of the article is a study of influence of worldview on the methodology of history, study of the article based on the ideological approach of B.V. Lichman and the idealistic approach to the history of G.I. Gerasimov's. A retrospective analysis reveals the decisive role of the worldview and the theory of creating the image of the past in relation to the methodology of history. Methodology is defined as the ideal activity of consciousness in cognition, transformation, design and construction. Methodology in history is a way of creating an image of the past within the framework of a certain theory, which defines the main features of this image, as well as the methods and practice of its creation. Since different methods are required to achieve different worldview goals, the methodologies for creating the past are different in different worldview paradigms. The absence in reality of the object of research - the past, creates big problems for its study and reconstruction. Today history is increasingly turning from science knowing the past into the science that constructs it. The most important factor determining this process is the worldview and private historical theories that guide the historian in creating the image of the past, and its subsequent presentation in the form of a text. The article argues that most of the historian’s research, analytical and constructive activities are not reflected in the text. In their practical activities, historians should pay more attention to the methods of its construction along with methods that study the evidence of the past. Historical science must also form its own method of creating a convincing image of the past while continuing to use the methods of literature.
