Methods of Putting Forward Alternative Historical Hypotheses in Science and Beyond: Philosophical and Methodological Analysis

The article deals with the counter-factual modeling of the past. One of the methodological directions of improving this approach is being studied. The methods of putting forward alternative historical hypotheses are revealed. It is stated that hypotheses should be distinguished within the framework of Alternate History. For this purpose, a level approach is taken from the philosophy. The following levels of Alternate History are distinguished: personalistic, event-based, and factor-based. It is shown that each level has a certain set of methods for proposing alternative hypotheses. The features of the application of these means of cognition in the framework of counter-factual modeling of the past are fixed.
