Two approaches to the selection of sources for a systematic literature review are compared — expert approach and algorithmic approach, based on an analysis of citation networks. Comparative analysis is conducted on the example of the research field of studying mass behavior. A comparison of two approaches according to formal and substantive criteria allows us to draw conclusions about significant difference, but also complementarity of the obtained results. Sources selected by the algorithmic approach do not reproduce the history of development of the research field described through sources selected by the expert approach. Adding expert elements to the algorithmic approach leads to a result that gives an idea of the links between classical and modern publications and groups of modern works that are interesting for study. The data obtained allow to draw a conclusion about the main reasons for the inconsistency of the results and formulate recommendations for the implementation of the proposed methodology in other areas.
