AN ANALYSIS ON THE PHILOSOPHICAL DEBATE OF THE SOCIAL SCIENCES IN ACCORDANCE TO THE WORKS OF EUGENE MILLER (original) (raw)

The paper examines the philosophical debate surrounding social sciences, particularly focusing on the works of Eugene Miller. It explores the evolution of political theory, presenting the historical contrasts between behaviourist and post-behaviouralist approaches, as well as the dominant role of positivism and its critiques. Through an analysis of these philosophical movements, the paper highlights the transition from a focus on objective, positive data to an acceptance of historicism that emphasizes the variability of knowledge based on historical and cultural contexts.
