Otvoreno društvo i njegovi neprijatelji I-II

Popper considers the concept of an open society, in which democracy, individual freedom and critical thinking reign, as opposed to closed societies that are characterized by dogmatism and repression. He criticizes Plato, Hegel and Marx as thinkers whose ideas contributed to the development of authoritarian systems. Popper specifically rejects historicism, the idea that history follows a predetermined course, arguing that such an approach often leads to utopian visions that justify repression. He advocates an open society as a system that enables changes through democratic processes and continuous self-criticism. This work plays a key role in understanding the struggle against totalitarianism and remains relevant in the context of modern political challenges.
