Conceptuality as a methodological tool of social cognition: a new paradigm of understanding

The study is aimed at identifying the correlation between the concepts of "dialectics", "sociality", "typology" in the modality of their methodological synthesis from the philosophical perspective. It is proven that the objectivity of reflexive relationship of the concepts determines the cognitive focus of human thinking on comprehending natural and social reality. It has been established that the subjective and semantic logic of conceptuality depends on the determination features of the system of concepts that generate it. The novelty of the work consists in substantiating the conceptuality of social cognition as a dominant logical and reflexive way of human thinking that dialectically encompassing the essence of reality in the ontognoseological unity of its typological manifestation. We focus on the cognitive and intellectual unity of the mental components of inner world of the subject of sociality in the following format: "objective reality - subjective image of reality - conscious image of the subject of practice - mental image of individual consciousness - semantic thought form of human conceptual thinking - sense-creating activity of the individual - intellectual experience of the actor of social practice". We have made an attempt to actualize the categories of "conceptuality", "dialectics", "sociality", "typology" in the methodological field of philosophical discourse, in which their mutually reinforcing cognitive and reflexive possibilities are revealed. The study used the dialectical method, methodology of typological knowledge, principles of complementarity, ascent from the abstract to the concrete, unity of dialectics and typology. We have substantiated the prospects of the ontology of human and society existence conceptuality in the discourse of socio-cultural rationality, and revealed the essence of epistemological experience as an immanent basis for the unity of mental components of human consciousness aimed at optimizing social activity. The conclusions of the study are specified in promising areas of use related to the development of the theory of philosophical conceptology, the principle of dialectical-constructive typologism, the dialectical method of typological reduction in social cognition. It is proposed to introduce into scientific circulation the concepts of "philosophical-typological conceptualism", "methodology of conceptuality".
