A General View of Positivism (English Version) - Odyssee

A General View of Positivism presents Auguste Comte’s vision for a scientific and philosophical reorganization of society based on the principles of positivism. Comte outlines his theory that human thought progresses through three stages: the theological, the metaphysical, and finally the positive, where knowledge is derived strictly from empirical observation and scientific reasoning. In this mature stage, he argues, society should be guided by scientific knowledge and moral order rooted in rationality, rather than religious or speculative metaphysics.

Comte also proposes a new social structure centered on a "Religion of Humanity," which replaces traditional religious institutions with a secular moral system designed to promote social cohesion, altruism, and progress. He envisions a scientific priesthood that would lead society not through divine authority but through expertise and ethical guidance. The book is a foundational text for the philosophy of positivism, emphasizing order, progress, and the transformative power of science in organizing modern life.
