MODERN LINGUISTICS PARADIGMS AND THE ISSUE OF THE CONCEPT

This article discusses the theoretical essence, terminological status and interpretation of the concept of concept in various scientific schools within the framework of the anthropocentric paradigm in modern linguistics. It analyzes the concept as a complex mental unit formed at the intersection of language, thought and culture. The author reveals the substantive boundaries and scientific status of the concept based on cognitive linguistics, linguoconceptology, linguocultural studies and discursive-pragmatic approaches. Also, the definitions given to the concept in foreign, Russian and Uzbek linguistics are comparatively examined, and its different aspects from the categories of “concept” and “meaning” are explained. As a result of the research, it is established that the concept is an integrative expression not only of the cognitive process, but also of national-cultural experience, values, images and communicative needs. The article emphasizes the multilayered structure of the concept and its importance as an operational methodological unit for linguistic research.
