Análisis de “La disputa del positivismo en la sociología alemana” de Adorno y Popper

The objective of this article is to analyse the dispute around the social sciences between Theodor Adorno and Karl Popper published in the book The dispute of positivism in German sociology. The central points the study will focus upon are what is science; what is its method. To fulfil the objective, we will make explicit each one of the points, and then, in a third stage, contrast the approaches of both authors. In the conclusions the possible political drifts to which the authors' conceptions lead are discussed.
