The objective set before us in this work is to explore the direction which social science has taken in this century. We do not intend to focus our attention on the nature and occurrence of phenomena, for these empirical notations are important only if one wants them to be. Furthermore, they are not relevant to science. The goal here is to simply distinguish, using a few isolated examples, between science and empiricism.
