metadata.value: The researcher is constantly evaluating ideas presented and embedding a certain
  degree of categoricality in the value-laden statements. On the one hand, the researcher
  must be categorical and persuasive to defend a personal point of view in a scientific
  discussion with colleagues. On the other hand, the researcher should maintain a
  maximal degree of politeness, keeping an open mind for further dialogue by avoiding
  overly categorical assertions. Otherwise, one may damage one’s professional face by
  provoking counter-critical reactions. Similar factors determine the communicative behavior
  of an expert, which balances between striving for an objective appraisal of the
  work reviewed as a whole not only of its positive and negative qualities and the establishment
  of respectful relations between the participants of scientific-expert communication.
  The aim of the present paper is to analyse the axiological aspect of socio-humanitarian
  research articles and scientific-expert texts in order to reveal the strategies
  of politeness in interpersonal projection. The research data are two corpora of theoretical
  articles on sociology in German and Russian and two corpora of German and
  Russian scientific reviews on Linguistics. The analysis focuses on the linguistic means
  of expressing the evaluative positions of the communicants and the strategies of polite
  communication employed by them. The methodology is based on the positions of sociological
  politeness theories, pragmalinguistics and discourse linguistics. The results
  fill the gaps in the description of the communicative profiles of scientific articles and reviews in German and Russian and identify linguistic and cultural specificity in the
  use of professional politeness strategies.
