Andreeva, her innovative research methodology and categorical apparatus. Results. Th e socio-cultural and intellectual factors of the emergence and creative development of the G.M. Andreeva’s school for more than a half of century are analyzed. Th e epistemological prerequisites for constructing social psychology as a scientifi c discipline included in the real context of the life of society and culture are revealed; the main results of the research of social cognition in conditions of social instability and uncertainty are summarizes and construed. Th e potential of her ideas in the intellectual context of modern psychology is shown. Conclusion.
