Logical Positivism - The Vienna Circle

Описание к видео Logical Positivism - The Vienna Circle

An introductory discussion of the Vienna Circle and their philosophical position of logical empiricism or logical positivism, which hinged on the so-called verifiability criterion of meaning. It was this principle that they used to try and rule out all metaphysical talk about reality, all religious talk about God, and all ethical talk about the good and the right. However, they soon realized that much more would end up being ruled out as a result.

These clips come from two different programs in the series on great ideas in philosophy: one on analytic philosophy and the other on metaphysics.
