Özet

This paper deals with the demarcation problem in philosophy of science. In this context, I look for answers from logical positivists to Popper and to nowadays philosophers to the following questions: What makes a text, a theory or a research scientific? How can we demarcate science and scientific views from metaphysical thoughts, ideologies, pseudo-sciences and conspiracy theories? What are the distinguishing characteristics of scientific method?
