Abstract

The article shows that the concept of the world model provides a methodological orientation and focus in studying objects or phenomena and acts as a guiding principle for the general research strategy. It is proven here that scientists from different fields use this concept in their studies the way it suits them: some authors treat the concept of the world model as a construction of a new reality, while others, as an objective reflection of the existing reality. Further, the paper demonstrates that in a social reality two opposite world models are realized: the Western (artificial construction of reality), focused on the economic and political sphere of social existence, and the Eastern model (accumulation of practical and social experience and its transfer to the next generations), concentrating on the spiritual sphere of the life of society. We show that at the present stage of the development of society, the Western world model in the form of the globalization project is most distinctly realized. Within the framework of metaphysical methodology, the real world and the objective processes taking place in it are studied from the point of view of constructing a new reality. The world model in this case is a construction of social reality based on subjective perception and is an abstract system reflecting the real laws but staying, in general, distant from reality. Conversely, within the framework of dialectical methodology, objective reality is modelled taking into account the entire objective social experience and the integrity of the processes of the real world. In this case, the world model is viewed as an accumulation of life experience and its use in the real life.
