Abstract

The paper defines the concept of ‘pluralism’ through comparison with monism. Pluralism of philosophical doctrines is acknowledged as a feature that has always distinguished philosophy from science. Transition of science knowledge evolution from monism to pluralism is observed on the basis of analysis of the formative stages of positivist philosophy of science. In postpositivism pluralism manifested itself in tendency to mitigate the methodological radicalism, orientation to analysis of socio-cultural role and historical context of science, ideas of science humanization and theoretical pluralism. The conclusion is about pertaining of pluralism not only to philosophy but also to science at higher levels of its development, as well as about convergence of philosophy and science.
