Abstract

In the context of an important objective, i.e., the construction of a worldwide scientific information base, an important question regarding the significance of ‘creative heritage’ has been raised. How can the creative heritage of a specific scientist in an established scientific field be integrated and valuable to modern research as the scientific community attempts to build a globally embraced foundation? In particular, this question is directed toward the famous Russian scientist, G.I. Chelpanov, and his theoretical and methodological contributions to the development of a modern worldwide scientific psychology. This paper presents the results of a psychological reconstruction of prognostic trends in Chelpanov’s philosophical and psychological doctrine while identifying critical characteristics of this scientist’s national and cultural heritage. This analysis regarding the significance of cultural heritage emerged by using a synthesis of humanitarian and natural science methodologies for studying the inner life of a personality, including the historical, cultural, and spiritual elements. This approach exams how the integration of Chelpanov’s creative heritage overcomes a methodological reduction of the metaphysical integrity of human beings - and is a necessary component for the development of an inclusive study of a global psychology that can contribute to worldwide scientific developments in the understanding of our common humanity.
