Critical Rationalism is a philosophical approach developed by Karl Popper that emphasizes the importance of falsifiability in scientific theories. According to this view, a theory is considered scientific only if it can be tested and potentially disproven. This means that rather than seeking to confirm theories, scientists should actively look for evidence that could refute them. This philosophy contrasts with traditional empiricism, which often focuses on accumulating evidence to support a theory. Critical Rationalism encourages a more dynamic understanding of knowledge, where theories are continuously challenged and refined through critical scrutiny and debate, leading to a more robust scientific process.
