New Experimentalism

New Experimentalism is a philosophical approach emphasizing the importance of practical testing and experience in shaping beliefs and knowledge. Instead of relying solely on abstract reasoning or fixed principles, it advocates for an empirical, trial-and-error process—trying out ideas through experiments or real-world application. This approach suggests that our understanding evolves through ongoing testing, observation, and revision, making knowledge more adaptable and responsive to new information. It highlights the dynamic, iterative nature of human inquiry, emphasizing that beliefs should be open to change based on compelling evidence obtained through practical engagement with the world.
