An introduction to jounalism studies for those who intend to be engaged in it as a branch of social-cultural sciences. The purpose of this paper is to give our students the most basic understanding of its “methodology”. As for methodologies of social-cultural sciences, I have discussed here three masters of social thoughts: Leo Tolstoy, Karl Marx and Vilfredo Pareto and compared their ways of perception of reality. Although these three thinkers are so original and different from one another, they have a certain viewpoint in common: the impossibility of immediate understanding of concrete reality and therefore the necessity of conceptualization. I would like to call this a “scientific point of view”.
