Abstract. The article deals with P. L. Lavrov’s criticism of G. W. F. Hegel’s idealistic metaphysical system from the positions of positivism. From the points of view of criticism and agnosticism Lavrov questioned the claim of Hegel’s system for generality, universality, the ability to know the essence of things. Lavrov made the correct conclusion that absolute rationalism leads to dogmatism. Marxism dogmatism logically comes from the dogmatism of the Hegelian universalism. Lavrov’s positivism overcame the deadlock, into which the Hegelian system came.
