Logical positivism was one of the most important school of thought in 20’century. It rooted in traditional empiricism but in recent years some researchers doubt about that and show that there is far distance between them.
Here we introduce one of the new interpretations about logical positivism i.e. Friedman’s version. On his view, instead of empirical reading of science, it accepts the necessity of non-empirical a priori principles. He believes that some logical positivists have their own way to assert the principles of logical positivism that is far distinct from traditional empiricism.
