Abstrakt

In the paper it is argued that Gonseth’s „open philosophy“ represents one of the variants of the twentieth century scientism, however, it differs from positivism. It contains outstanding dialectical characteristics, it refuses any fixed invariable first starting point of science and philosophy (be it „protocol sentences“ or „first principles“). It represents a philosophic generalization of several substantial moments of the cognitive process in modern science, especially its methodology. Scientism does not overcome, however, the limitations of the bourgeois philosophy of science.
