Abstract

The article examines popular conceptions of social and emotional intelligence that allow the question of the specificities of the social sciences and humanities to be revisited in a new context. On the one hand, the example of hermeneutics draws attention to the fundamental difference between the social and human sciences and the natural sciences. On the other hand, in light of recent research on social and emotional intelligence and the conceptions of the social and emotional brain, the authors aim to justify the possibility of distinguishing between the cognitive and methodological aspects of hermeneutics. The article reviews popular cognitive studies that demonstrate current trends in the study of the social nature of human beings. It raises the question of the prospects for modern scientific justification of the social and humanitarian problems raised by hermeneutics in the 20th century, and the possibility of using the experience accumulated by hermeneutics in the study of the intuitive side of human understanding for the further development of conceptions of the social and emotional brain.
