Abstract

This study critically examines Tan Malaka’s thought in Madilog as the foundation for an emancipatory philosophy of science that is distinctive and contextual. By analyzing Tan’s three definitions of science—accurate thought, organization of facts, and simplification by generalization—the research constructs a tripartite analytical framework: epistemology, methodology, and abstraction. Through a conceptual analysis and contextual hermeneutic approach, this study demonstrates that Tan’s ideas are not merely an effort toward rational enlightenment but also a strategy for liberating collective reasoning from colonial domination, feudal customs, and religius mysticism. Compared to classical Western epistemology—such as the justified true belief model, Baconian scientific method, and Comtean positivism—Tan’s thought presents an original and practical synthesis. In this framework, knowledge is not only a tool for understanding but also an instrument for action. The study concludes that Tan Malaka’s tripartite method makes a significant contribution to contemporary philosophy of science discourse, particularly in the context of epistemological decolonization, critique of scientific neutrality, and knowledge as transformative praxis.
