We will start from a broad conception of nihilism, namely nihilism as kind of Entwertung, and then we will discuss some specific points of this notion. After this, we will present a approach to the following topic: nihilism and scientific thought, considering mostly the positivist bias. For this, we intend to show the relationship between nihilism andNietzsche’s hispothesis of the axiological neutrality in the scientific interpretation.
