Post-modern constructivism: history of an antiscientific doctrine
Abstract
The present paper is a historical approach to postmodernism in one of its dimensions: constructivism, the theory that holds the world is a social construction with no outward objective correspondence. Through the analysis of the genealogy of this dimension, the article aims to show that constructivism is greatly indebted to diverse lines of irrationalist, subjectivist and idealist thought, and therefore it is necessarily an anti and pseudoscientific doctrine.
