== Notes == {{Reflist | refs= {{refn|name=popperproposecriticalrationalism| {{harvnb|Popper|1962|loc=Introduction, XV}}: "The proper answer to my question 'How can we hope to detect and eliminate error?' is, I believe, 'By criticizing the theories or guesses of others and—if we can train ourselves to do so—by criticizing our own theories or guesses.' (The latter point is highly desirable, but not indispensable; for if we fail to criticize our own theories, there may be others to do it for us.) This answer sums up a position which I propose to call 'critical rationalism'."}} {{refn|name=poppercriticsofVienna| {{Harvnb|Akrami|2009|loc=Sec. Popper's Critique of Vienna Circle and the Positivistic Approach}}: "Trying to analyze and solve the problem of demarcation, Popper came to the conclusion that classical empiricism and logical positivism, particularly as manifested in observationalist-inductivist account of science, must be criticized from a viewpoint that came to be called 'critical rationalism', a term that was used to describe his own philosophy."}}}}
