GARGIULO DE VAZQUEZ, María Teresa. La noción positiva de ciencia de Paul Karl Feyerabend. Crítica (Méx., D.F.) [online]. 2015, vol.47, n.141, pp.61-94.  Epub 02-Abr-2020. ISSN 0011-1503.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iifs.18704905e.2015.416.

Feyerabend's thought has been the object of multiple and divergent interpretations, but amongst these the inscription of his work within the coordinates of a radical skepticism seems to be unanimous. These readings find partial support in his epistemological anarchism, which constitutes a reductio ad absurdum of the attempts of logical positivism and critical rationalism to define science axiomatically or methodologically; in this sense his work can be treated as a set of negative and skeptical arguments concerning those notions of science. However, this hermeneutic offers only a fragmented and partial view of his thought. The purpose of this article is to reconstruct the intellectual journey along which Feyerabend matures his positive understanding of science in order to transcend the hermeneutics of his work in the key of skepticism.

Palabras llave : epistemological anarchism; relativism; myth; philosophy; human science.
