FALSIFICABILITATEA ÎN FENOMENUL JUSTIȚIEI SOCIALE
FALSIFIABILITY IN THE PHENOMENON OF SOCIAL JUSTICE

Summary/Abstract: According to the almost general concept, a science has the sole purpose of constructing explanations (understood as objective causal descriptions). But this applies only to the natural sciences, because in the social field there are also subjective causes (called goals or final causes) that are generated by free will, so they are unpredictable. Consequently, the factual falsification required by Popper is not possible. The paper aims to examine this impossibility in a conceptual, methodological and instrumental way in order to identify an alternative that would save the testability in the social field. The „social object" used for this analysis is the phenomenon of social justice. In order to elucidate the proposed subject, social justice will be researched both from an institutional, formal and cultural perspective, which implies taking into account the axiological matrix of society.
