    The paper provides a logico-mathematical analysis of the concept of chaos from the point of view of a constructivist philosophy of physics. The author argues that deterministic chaos points to a philosophy which asserts that chaotic systems are no less measurable than other physical systems where predictable and non-predictable phenomena intermingle in a constructive theory of measurement.
