This study revisits key arguments about method which are part of the traditional Romanian thought. It appears that the domestic concerns were synchronously linked to internationally most debated ideas. The present discussion focuses on the methodological dichotomy between exact and social sciences and finds that this problem seems to get no unequivocal resolve to us and elsewhere. The only constructive reference we have would be (1) to overcome the problem of devising scientific rationality exclusively by means of formalism and (2) to place hermeneutics somewhere between method and a conceptually wider coverage of understanding.
