Abstract
Purpose of the study: this study aims to develop a systemic understanding of the research process in the history of management thought (HMT). The article identifies the distinctive features of this process, formulates epistemological tasks for achieving the goals of HMT research, identifies the sources of factors influencing the subject matter of HMT research, and explicates the content of the principles of HMT research and their interaction throughout the research process. Methodology: the methodological basis of the study comprises works on the subject published by Russian scholars between 1985 and 2024. Originality and contribution: the article develops an original systemic view of HMT research methodology in the form of a framework that conceptualizes the research process as the performance of epistemological tasks grounded in the principles of HMT research. This framework can be applied in both research and teaching practice.
