From tradition to innovation in the philosophy and methodology of contemporary science: “The Trietics of Contradiction” - Ștefan Lupașcu

Abstract

Stephen Lupasco epistemologist advocates open dialogue with the new achievements of science. He proposes a theory of knowledge based on antagonistic irreducible duality in which phenomena were not theory of knowledge based on antagonistic irreducible duality in which phenomena were not linear and static but swing and rhythm. Analyze problems of logic and methodology of science Stefano Lupasco put the principle of antagonism to the logic that admits the existence of a dynamic, structural and contradictory function. The diversity of scientific elaborations in the field denotes the existence of a pluralism that can be interpreted differently: either as an impediment to understanding the processes and structural systemic phenomena that occur, or as an indicator of different options to be treated as positive. Ştefan Lupaşcu explains the term ethics specific to his epistemology by defining in the preface of the work “Man and his three ethics”: “... by the term ethics I mean the behavior, at the same time physical, biological and psychic of man, in contact with internal phenomena and external of the subject and the object, of the unconscious and the consciousness”. Therefore, we retain the ethical behavior explained by the physical, biological and psycho-social dimension
