The article is devoted to the analysis of modern trends in the development of methodology, theory and techniques of biotechnology. A methodological crisis and the clear need for reflection on the consequences of scientific and technological progress in general, and the application of biotechnology, in particular, led to the emergence of socio-methodological discourse of innovative approaches and concepts in this field of knowledge. One of the central provisions is sociosynergetic methodology, modelling the self-developing systems. Considerable attention is given to justify the inevitability of ethical-anthropological evaluation of the implications of the use of axiological biotechnologies. The author concludes that in post-non-classic methodology in general and in sociosynergetics, in particular, the bioethical principles, forming a new ethos of biotechnologies, will serve as a methodological rule. In connection with it, the search for mechanisms of introduction of qualitative bioethics practices is extremely important.
