About Ákos Pauler
- Ákos Pauler (1876–1933) was a Hungarian philosopher. He defended metaphysics against logical positivism.
- As part of this defense, he accounted for a method of determining truths alongside the deductive and inductive methods, one which he called reductive.
- According to Pauler, the reductive method, unlike induction and deduction, does not determine what entities there are but rather can determine the conditions of possibility of valid thought itself.
- He also associates the reductive method with Plato's dialectic, even suggesting that reduction can ultimately lead to knowledge of the Form of the Good.
