Description

Karl Raimund Popper's Conocimiento objetivo Un enfoque evolucionista presents a critical approach to epistemology, starting from the realist notion of everyday sense. This perspective asserts that our initial assumptions must be constantly questioned.

The author challenges traditional theories of knowledge, such as the idea that understanding is a passive accumulation of sensory data. Instead, Popper proposes an active process of knowing, linked to pre-existing expectations and analogous to biological evolution.

This book critiques inductivism, questioning the definitive nature of any claim to knowledge. It advocates for continuous criticism and revision, viewing all instances as provisional conjectures subject to scrutiny.
