The history of science according to Menachem Fisch goes as follows: Scientists work both within Frameworks that are constitutive of the Normative Standards for the Frameworks, and also with Critical Rationalism where those Frameworks are revised through criticism. This creates a dilemma: since rational criticism depends on Frameworks, rational criticism is inherently limited. Hence, there will always be uncriticised areas. However, science as a fully rational endeavour cannot function without Frameworks. How then can Frameworks be fully rationally criticised and changed when rationally required? Solution (according to Fisch): the rational change of Frameworks and their normative standards of rationality occurs through a psychological process of seeking out new Frameworks and modifying one’s belief-systems by use of rational criticism from alternative Frameworks or belief-systems; by creating new hybrid Frameworks partially composed of the old Framework, and an alternative Framework – done for the reason of getting the best of both “worlds” (Frameworks as constitutive of normative systems) and ridding both “worlds” (or Normative systems) of their worst components.
