C. Rădulescu-Motru și proiectul pozitivist al psihologiei ca știință
C. Rădulescu-Motru and the project of psychology as positive science

Summary/Abstract: My aim in this paper is to argue that C. Rădulescu-Motru was in his book Puterea sufletească [The Power of Soul] very close to the positivist approach of psychology. I support the thesis that Motru not only had a good understanding of the project developed by Comte and Mill, but he also tried to use and integrate creatively, especially Mill’s ideas, into his own approach. Moreover, I propose the historical interpretation that Motru didn’t leave his own initial positivist methodological framework, but he tried to develop it inside the more complex vision of a methodological pluralism.
