The article considers methodological culture of a scientist, its content and conditions of
forming. The main paradigms of the methodology of science are reconstructed: monistic,
pluralistic and their variants. The principal impossibility of realizing the monistic para-
digm of the methodology of science in real science is shown. This is due to two factors:
a qualitative variety of objects of scientific knowledge and a structural variety of areas,
levels, scientific disciplines and types of scientific knowledge. A critical analysis of the
pluralistic paradigm of the methodology of science in its anarchist version (P. Feyera-
bend) is given. The system-pluralistic model of the methodology of science is substantiat-
ed as the most adequate to real science.
Keywords:
scientific method, methodology of science, methodological culture of a scien-
tist, paradigms of methodology of science, structure of the contemporary methodology of
science
