Définition

  • After centuries of neglect, an intense interest in scientific laws was generated in the mid 20th century, principally by the seminal work on scientific explanation by the philosopher of science Carl Hempel. It became evident that the concept of law had an important role not only in the philosophy of science but more generally for the philosophy of mind, psychology, and the social sciences.
