Demarcation Criterion - Economics Dictionary of Arguments | |||
Demarcation criterion: The demarcation criterion in philosophy of science is a proposed standard for distinguishing between science and non-science. One demarcation criterion is falsifiability, proposed by Karl Popper. This criterion states that a theory is scientific if and only if it is possible to logically deduce observational consequences from it that would falsify it if they were not observed. See also Observation, Theories, Falsification, Confirmation._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.
