Criticisms of Ayer’s Logical Positivism

Ahell announced language, truth and logic when he was only 26 years old in 1936. He is a member of the Viennese Circle and they are known for their philosophy of logical positivism. Logical positivism is a philosophical theory, meaning only less rigorous propositions, which can be analyzed as basic propositions by logical tools or as being empirically verifiable. Therefore, it rejects metaphysics, theology, and sometimes morality is pointless. Regarding language, truth and logic, Ayle proposed his own verification principle.

A.J. is promoting logical positivism in the UK. Aiel visited the Viennese Circle in 1933. His work "Language, Truth, and Logic" (Ayer 1936) is influential and continues to be the best introductory to logical positivism as it was understood during its heyday. To get rid of the turmoil in World War II, several members of the Vienna Circle emigrated to the U.S. where they gained leadership positions and had a tremendous impact on academic philosophy. However, around this time, the logical positivism was largely over. Therefore, less logical positivism has not been announced, but in the philosophical direction more attention is paid to language, logic, and science.

In 1936 Alfred Jules Ayer published a book called "Language, Truth, and Logic". At the time of publication, it was understood as the main argument of logical positivism (McDonald's). In order to understand the principle of verification, you must first become familiar with logical positivism. The basic idea of ​​democracy is the government governed by the people. However, the democratic implementation of each country is different, which depends on historical factors and cultural factors of each country. Pakistan, Egypt and Indonesia are Muslim dominant countries and prove their ability to maintain a democratic system. Based on this fact, my hypothesis is that Muslim countries are compatible with democracy as long as their Islamic values ​​are still respected by the West.
