Although we face in the present time many serious problems pu blic social sciences do not to pay them, from our point of view, appropriat e attention. Even when some probl ems are reflected by theory, t he reflection does not sufficiently affect real life or the reflection repres ents only sporadic attempts. The paper brings examples of the C zech scientific paper that are engaged, it means they try to analyze the seriou s problems in time of publishing the paper.
