Abstract: This article is an approbation of thesis on the topic of “The nature of social reality in the context of modern forms of cynicism”, dedicated to research of the fundamental of dynamic approach towards understanding of the essence of social reality. The object of this research is the social action as a behavioral model that always correlated with the behavioral patterns of other subjects of social interaction. The subject of this study is cynicism as a specific pattern of social behaviors. The goal of this work consists in the analysis of characteristics of “understanding sociology” in the context of reinterpretation of the question on the nature of social reality; as well as explication of the grounds of Weber’s concept of the “ideal types”, necessary for structuring the models that explain cynic social action. The author’s special contribution into this research lies in determining Weber’s idea on the reduction of value orientation to the “ideal types” in the course of analysis of the problem on ambiguity of value meanings. Such reduction results from the interpretation of values as the flexible heterogenic formations appearing in within social reality and coming into collision with each other. Such understanding of axiological structures reveals social reality for the dynamic description as the continuously reproducing and transforming in the course of social interaction. This idea is applicable to the analysis of the behavioral patterns of cynicism as they are also the axiological structures. Thus, it is acceptable to consider cynicism as a model of social behavior, and at the same time, the value-subjective foundation of social action.
