Abstract

This article is dedicated to critical analysis of a work by O.V. Mikhailov on problems of citation, which compares works by representatives of natural science disciplines and the humanities. The invalidity of insisting that a fundamental difference exists between natural scientists and scholars in the humanities from the point of view of the freedom of creativity, the typology of scientific publications, and the search for scientific regularities is affirmed, and the lower citation indicators of scholars in the humanities are explained in detail by the example of historians in relation to several objective factors.
