What is Falsification in Philosophy of Science about?
Falsification, introduced by Karl Popper, posits that scientific theories must be testable and capable of being disproven to be considered valid. This principle contrasts with verificationism and emphasizes the provisional nature of scientific knowledge, highlighting that no theory can be definitively proven true. Despite facing criticism regarding its application and limitations, falsification remains a crucial framework for distinguishing scientific theories from non-scientific claims.
