Resumo: Paul Feyerabend, between 1948 and 1970, discussed several issues concerning quantum mechanics: the measurement problem, the complementarity and the “cut” between the macro and micro regime, were some of the most studied subjects. Since his first academic works, it is possible to identify aspects that will be important to him throughout his life, such as the relationship between physical knowledge and worldviews. Based on a reconstruction of his thought (between 1948 and 1970), this article seeks to understand how his criticisms of quantum mechanics led him to argue that classical physics is more fundamental than quantum mechanics, not the opposite, in addition to discuss the relationship between physical knowledge and worldview, something that, for Feyerabend, is inseparable.

Desde seus primeiros trabalhos acadêmicos, é possível identificar aspectos que o serão caros durante toda sua vida, como é o caso da relação entre conhecimento físico e visões de mundo. A partir de uma reconstrução de seu pensamento (entre os anos de 1948 e 1970), o presente artigo busca compreender como suas críticas à mecânica quântica o levaram a defender que a física clássica é mais fundamental que a mecânica quântica, não o contrário, além de discutir a relação entre conhecimento físico e visão de mundo, algo que, para Feyerabend, é indissociável.Federal University of Santa Catarina – UFSC2022-12-13info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/principia/article/view/8500010.5007/1808-1711.2022.e85000Principia: an international journal of epistemology; Vol. 26 No. 3 (2022); 509–537Principia: an international journal of epistemology; Vol. 26 Núm. 3 (2022); 509–537Principia: an international journal of epistemology; v. 26 n. 3 (2022); 509–5371808-17111414-4247reponame:Principia (Florianópolis.
