ТHE PROBLEM OF RESEARCH IN SOCIAL SCIENCES: THE PLACE OF METHODOLOGY IN CONTEMPORARY RESEARCH.

We have tried to explore the place of methodology in contemporary research in social and humanistic sciences; to consider the status of the methodology facing SCI lists, scoring, proliferation of papers that threaten to jeopardize the quality and the status of the social sciences. The basic question we want to find the answer to is whether there has been a so-called crisis of methodology. Our goal is to draw attention to the quantification of quasi-research that does not provide concrete answers to the social problems they (should) investigate. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
