Abstract

This article aims to show the interdependence of science and society by the example of the development of the national sociology of the city (social urbanism). The author proposes а new approach to the periodization of the development of Russian urban sociology based on the prevailing type of sociality. The idea is that the social nature of the modern city determines the need for a new scientific direction, ‘epistemological urbanism’, the construction of a discursive meta-model of modern domestic urbanism, which integrates an internal (cognitive-research), external (normative-communicative) and open (general cultural) sociality. The article solves the problem of systemic characteristics of the epistemological and substantive content of Russian social urbanism at different stages of its formation, current social status and development vectors. The methodological basis of the study is the typology of sociality (I. T. Kasavin). The study also uses the typology of theoretical discourses of urbanism (E. Soja) and the periodization of Russian urbanism based on the typology of social structure (O. N. Yanitsky).
