Karl Popper

1902–1994

Karl Popper (1902–1994) was an Austrian-British philosopher best known for his contributions to the philosophy of science, particularly his principle of falsificationism, which argues that scientific theories must be testable and falsifiable. He also wrote extensively on political philosophy, defending open societies against totalitarianism. Popper was a critical rationalist who emphasized the fallibility of knowledge and the importance of critical debate.
