Abstract
The Author maintains that the Neo-Empiristic movement is the result of many philosophical and scientific components which do not belong only to the Austrian philosophical-scientific tradition. Such numerous elements have led to an entanglement of semantic, metaphysical and epistemological problems which Logical Empiricists, maintaining a strict adherence to the verification principle and the linguistic theory of the a priori, were not able to solve completely.
