Sir Karl Raimund Popper (1902 - 1994)

The Austrian born philosopher Sir Karl Popper taught in England and is considered the founder and main representative of critical rationalism. In critical debates about logical positivism with the Vienna Circles, he established a general scientific theory and a theory of methodology. In addition to the "Logic of Scientific Discovery", in the 1940s he conceived the political philosophy named "Open Society" as a means of defending freedom against totalitarian ruling systems. The intellectual fertilisation which the "European Forum Alpbach" received in the first 15 years came from his philosophy and cannot be overestimated.
