Uskali Maki est un épistémologue finlandais qui relie l'épistémologie de l'école autrichienne à une épistémologie basée sur le réalisme et le "realisticness". L'originalité d'Uskali Maki est de montrer que les approches scientifiques non fondées sur le réalisme ne peuvent pas être rejetées, la théorie néoclassique en économie y compris, sur le principe même que les hypothèses sont irréalistes voire complètement fausses. Selon lui, une analyse plus fine est nécessaire parce que toutes les théories contiennent plus ou moins des éléments irréalistes. Il défend même, que derrière l'idéalisme et l'instrumentalisme du positivisme de Milton Friedman, il existe des éléments réalistes.
Uskali Maki effectue une différence entre le réalisme et le realisticness. Un chercheur peut très bien être réaliste et utiliser des hypothèses irréalistes, sans perdre sa cohérence logique. Il va plus loin, en indiquant, qu'un chercheur doit employer des hypothèses irréalstes lorsqu'il est confronté à des aspects limités de la vérité mais en disposant tout de même de causalités significatives. De tels chercheurs ne doivent pas se précipiter vers des positions anti-réalistes parce qu'ils emploient de telles hypothèses.
