Hungarian-British philosopher of science (1922-1974). In Proofs and Refutations (1976) Lakatos applied Popper's account of scientific falsifiability to mathematical reasoning as well.

The work that helped to determine Paul Feyerabend's fame and notoriety, Against Method, stemmed from Imre Lakatos's challenge: "In 1970 Imre cornered me at a party. 'Paul,' he said, 'you have such strange ideas. Why don't you write them down? I shall write a reply, we publish the whole thing and I promise you--we shall have a lot of fun.' "

В 60—70 гг имя Имре Лакатоса (правильно — Лакатоша, но его венгерская фамилия уже вошла в нашу литературу в “инглизированной транскрипции”) звучало громко. Самый талантливый ученик К Поппера он в эти годы соперничал со своим учителем по количеству дискуссий, прямо или косвенно касавшихся его взглядов, и был—вплоть до своего безвременного ухода в 1974 г —активным их участником Во многом благодаря его работам, “критический рационализм”—философско-методологическая концепция, разработанная К. Поппером,—до настоящего времени не утратил своего теоретического и практического значения.
