Documentary abstract — original language

This work discusses the presence of a dogmatic tendency in the main stream of modern cosmology. By means of a detailed reading of some texts which represent researchers in this area, we conclude that a dogmatic thinking does seem to exist in this particular area of research. We also discuss how badly this kind of thinking affects the development of modern cosmology, as well as a possible way of neutralizing its influence. The proposed solution lies in the philosophical thinking of the Austrian physicist Ludwig Boltzmann (1844-1906). In particular, we use his two main epistemological theses, theoretical pluralism and scientific theories as representation of nature, to show that once these theses are absorved into the scientific practice, there is no longer any reason for dogmatic attitudes. Este trabalho discute a presença de uma postura dogmática no main stream da cosmologia moderna. Através de uma leitura crítica de alguns textos representativos de pesquisadores da área, constatamos a presença desse espírito dogmático e discutimos o quão negativo ele é para o desenvolvimento da cosmologia, bem como uma possível forma de neutralizar sua influência sobre esse domínio da pesquisa. A solução proposta origina-se no pensamento filosófico do físico austríaco Ludwig Boltzmann (1844-1906). Em particular, utilizamos as suas duas principais teses epistemológicas, o pluralismo teórico e a teoria científica como representação da natureza, para mostrar que, uma vez incorporados esses mesmos princípios à prática científica, não mais permanecem motivos para comportamentos dogmáticos.
