Abstract: Here is my translation of Müller (1974) which contains Müller's concept of "distanced rationality":... distanced rationality.By this we mean an attitude to the given, which is not governed by any possible or imputed immanent laws, but which confronts it with draft constructs of the mind in the form of models, hypotheses, working hypotheses, definitions, conclusions, alternatives, analogies, so to speak from a distance, in the manner of partial, provisional, approximate knowledge.
