The critical paradigm is more notably interested in power relations and what factors cause the suppression of the less dominant class (Kincheloe & McLaren‚ 1998‚ p. 264).Asghar (2013‚ p. 3123)‚ proposes

What is Descartes’ Method of investigation called? How does he use this method to question what his senses tell him? Why does his primary reason for not trusting his senses fail to cast doubt on the truths of arithmetic and geometry? Is there any way‚ according to Descartes‚ of raising doubt about even these truths? Are all truths brought into doubt by this method? Does any belief survive? The first magnificent philosopher of the modern era was the Frenchman Rene’ Descartes. He began his

“divided line.” (You can use the visual image‚ but explain it.) Plato was extremely devoted in answering the sophists’ skepticism about reason and morality. To do so‚ he spent more time than any philosopher before him studying knowledge‚ or epistemology.
