Imre Lakatos. Falsification and the Methodology of Scientific ResearchProgrammes. A Methodology Of Scientufic Research Programmers.
http://nb.vse.cz/~sloukova/FIL418/lakatos.htm

Extractions: I have discussed the problem of objective appraisal of scientific growth in terms of progressive and degenerating problemshifts in series of scientific theories. The most important such series in the growth of science are characterized by a certain continuity which connects their members. This continuity evolves from a genuine research programme adumbrated at the start. The programme consists of methodological rules: some tell us what paths of research to avoid (negative heuristic), and others what paths to pursue (positive heuristic).1 Even science as a whole can be regarded as a huge research programme with Popper's supreme heuristic rule : "devise conjectures which have more empirical content than their predecessors." Such methodological rules may be formulated, as Popper pointed out, as metaphysical principles.2 For instance, the universal anti-conventiolnalist rule against exception-barring may be stated as the metaphysical principle: "Nature does not allow exceptions". This is why Watkins called such rules "influential metaphysics".3 But what I have primarily in mind is not science as a whole, but rather particular research programmes, such as the one known as "Cartesian metaphysics". Cartesian metaphysics, that is, the mechanistic theory of the universe-according to which the universe is a huge clockwork (and system of vortices) with push as the only cause of motion-functioned as a powerful heuristic principle. It discouraged work on scientific theories - like (the "essentialist" version of) Newton's theory of action at a distanee-which were inconsistent with it (negative heuristic). On the other hand, it encouraged work on auxiliary hypotheses which might have saved it from apparent counterevidence -like Keplerian ellipses (positive heuristic).4

http://www.shef.ac.uk/~phil/courses/312/05lakatos.htm

Extractions: IMRE LAKATOS THE METHODOLOGY OF RESEARCH PROGRAMMES (MRP) Lakatoss original intention was to defend Poppers position by arguing that while a naive falsificationism might be objectionable because it depended too much upon the existence of crucial experiments and decisive refutations , there was still much to be said in favour of a sophisticated falsificationism. However, Lakatos seems to have come to realise that what he was advocating was more than just an amendment to Poppers position, but was a genuinely independent methodological stance. Hence Sophisticated Falsificationism became the Methodology of Research Programmes One might well view Lakatoss MRP as a synthesis of what was acceptable in Popper and Kuhn. His main point is that, contrary to naive falsificationism (i.e., Popper), theories of a certain sort the sort that are cores of research programmes are not sharply falsifiable. They can be cumulatively disconfirmed over a period of time, but they can't be decisively knocked out by a single crucial experiment This point is charmingly illustrated by the imaginary case of planetary misbehaviour which Lakatos recounts in Falsification and the methodology of scientific research programmes. But in truth we should not need a detour through case-studies, real or imaginary, in order to grasp this point which is

http://www.sg.uu.nl/KLM/Lakatos.html

Extractions: Lakatos neemt zich de kritiek van Kuhn op de Popperiaanse voor onderstelling van wetenschappelijke vooruitgang ter harte, maar is niet bereid om afstand te doen van de methodologie als sturend principe van wetenschappelijke activiteit. Hij geeft, met zijn verfijnd falsificationisme , manieren aan om om te gaan met weerleggingen op een manier die nog steeds vooruitgang geeft. Volgens Lakatos staan generalisaties en beweringen nooit op zichzelf, maar zijn ze altijd verankerd in een onderzoekprogramma harde kern Daaromheen bevindt zich een beschermgordel van waarnemingsuitspraken en hulphypothesen waarin veranderingen kunnen worden aangebracht, die, als ze niet ad hoc zijn, een verbetering van de theorie opleveren. De methodologische regels, positieve en negatieve heuristiek Het onderzoek binnen een onderzoekprogramma wordt verondersteld theoretische progressie op te leveren. Wetenschappelijke voor uitgang wordt dus niet bepaald door een toenemende empirische inhoud, zoals in het geval van de logisch empiristen, of een toenemende informatieve waarde, zoals in het geval van het falsificationistische programma van Popper; vooruitgang houdt in een toenemende voorspellende waarde. Een theorie is een waardig opvolger van de vorige theorie in het onderzoekprogramma wanneer ze alles wat de eerste theorie kon verklaren of voorspelde omvat, en bovendien voorspellingen doet die volgens de eerste theorie onvoorstelbaar zijn. In tegenstelling tot Kuhn gaat Lakatos er van uit dat er een rationele keuze tussen verschillende programma's gemaakt kan worden op grond van (min of meer) duidelijke beslisregels, terwijl de paradigmawisselingen van Kuhn een tamelijk autonoom proces is waarop geen controle uit te oefenen valt. Precieze besluitvormingscriteria voor de keuze tussen onderzoeksprogramma's heeft Lakatos echter nooit geformuleerd.

http://www.soc.soton.ac.uk/CHD/staff_stu/cbe/mnvit/mnvit12/node6.html

Extractions: took up critical rationalism and modified it [ ]. Popper's strict disapproval of induction was weakened in order to explain the success of induction in theoretical sciences [ ]. Furthermore Lakatos introduced the view of competing scientific programmes, which adhere to differing theories. These programmes develop in different directions but they can influence each other and although it sometimes seems that one of the theories is refuted it might be revived at a later point of time, when new evidence has accumulated. An example for this is the change from Aristarchos theory of the motion of the earth toward Ptolemaius view and back to Copernicus. The reason for these revivals might be an aspect of Popper's deductive method: the criteria that decide whether a hypothesis is refuted or not are building on metaphysical conjectures. Popper himself agrees that a final proof or disproof is not possible in nature. This point of Popper's theory has been attacked as irrational by Hilary Putnam among others [

Extractions: MTA Filozófiai Intézete A magyar jelenség a 19. század vége óta megfigyelhetõ tudománytörténeti folyamat, mely alapjaiban érinti az egész magyar tudományosságot. Egyik legfõbb jellegzetessége a tudóstehetségek 20. századi elvándorlása. Ez a folyamat szorosan kötõdik a tudomány és állam nem éppen viszálymentes kapcsolatához szinte az egész mögöttünk maradt évszázadban. A tudósok - és egyáltalán az értelmiségiek - elvándorlása a század során egyre fokozódó ütemben zajlott. A Magyarországról már végleg elköltözöttek teljes számát még megbecsülni sem tudjuk, hiszen olyan sokféle szakterületen, olyan különbözõ színvonalat elért kutatók olyan sok országba és olyan hosszú ideje vándorolnak, hogy sorsukat, teljesítményeiket csak igen pontatlanul tudjuk felmérni, megbecsülni. Elkülöníthetõ azonban egy alcsoport a vándorló tudósok nagy és rétegezett csoportján belül: a világhírû, lassanként legendává nemesülõ nagy tudósoké, akik a tudomány elitjébe kerültek, sõt némelyikük a tudomány sztárjává vált, ha egyáltalán értelmes dolog sztárokról beszélni a tudomány esetén. Minden esetre az általuk alkotott csoport sorsa, szerepe, eredményessége önálló, tanulmányozásra érdemes tudománytörténeti jelenség, mégpedig nem csak a magyar, hanem a 20. századi egyetemes tudománytörténet számára is, ezért neveztem el, Thomas Kuhnt követve, "magyar jelenségnek".

Extractions: Paper $20.00tx 0-226-46775-9 Fall 2000 The work that helped to determine Paul Feyerabend's fame and notoriety, Against Method, stemmed from Imre Lakatos's challenge: "In 1970 Imre cornered me at a party. 'Paul,' he said, 'you have such strange ideas. Why don't you write them down? I shall write a reply, we publish the whole thing and I promise youwe shall have a lot of fun.' " Although Lakatos died before he could write his reply, For and Against Method reconstructs his original counter-arguments from lectures and correspondence previously unpublished in English, allowing us to enjoy the "fun" two of this century's most eminent philosophers had, matching their wits and ideas on the subject of the scientific method. For and Against Method opens with an imaginary dialogue between Lakatos and Feyerabend, which Matteo Motterlini has constructed, based on their published works, to synthesize their positions and arguments. Part one presents the transcripts of the last lectures on method that Lakatos delivered. Part two, Feyerabend's response, consists of a previously published essay on anarchism, which began the attack on Lakatos's position that Feyerabend later continued in

Extractions: Opinions "Lakatos's contribution to the philosophy of mathematics was, to put it simply, definitive: the subject will never be the same again. (...) Lakatos made us think instead about what most research mathematicians do. He wrote an amazing philosophical dialogue around the proof of a seemingly elementary but astonishingly deep geometrical idea pioneered by Euler. It is a work of art - I rank it right up there with the dialogues composed by Hume or Berkeley or Plato. He made us see a theorem, a mathematical fact, coming into being before our eyes." - Ian Hacking, in a review of

http://www-groups.dcs.st-andrews.ac.uk/~history/Mathematicians/Lakatos.html

Extractions: Imre Lakatos was given the name Imre Lipschitz at birth, born into a Jewish family as his name clearly indicated. His life would be dominated by the chaos that resulted from the Nazi rise to power and World War II, the war breaking out when Imre was in his final years at school. It was a difficult period for Hungary, with the country unsure whether to side with Hitler or with the allies, but in many ways Hungary had few options. Hitler decided that he could not leave his vital communications at the mercy of an uncommitted Hungarian regime. In March 1944 Hitler offered Hungary the choice of either cooperating with Germany or the German armies would occupy the country. Hungary chose cooperation and appointed a government to collaborate with Hitler. The Germans did as they pleased, suppressing opponents and arresting anyone who spoke out against them. Jews were compelled to wear a yellow star and their property was taken away. Imre had spent the war years at the University of Debrecen and he graduated in 1944 with a degree in mathematics, physics and philosophy. To avoid the Nazi persecution of Jews he changed his name to
