Being in or Getting at the Real:Kochan on Rouse,Heidegger and minimal realism
Scientific realism Heidegger Rouse
2016/6/15
We discuss Kochan’s recent criticism of the work of Joseph Rouse (Kochan 2011). We argue that Kochan fails to show that both Rouse’s own work and his Heidegger interpretation are plagued by insurmount...
Priority and Particle Physics:Ontic Structural Realism as a Fundamentality Thesis
structural realism fundamentality particle physics
2016/6/15
In this article, I address concerns that the ontological priority claims definitive of ontic structural realism are as they stand unclear, and I do so by placing these claims on a more rigorous formal...
The Argument from Underconsideration and Relative Realism
antirealism argument from underconsideration epistemic privilege K. Brad Wray relative realism scientific realism
2016/6/15
In this paper, through a critical examination of Wray’s version of the argument from underconsideration against scientific realism, I articulate a modest version of scientific realism. This modest rea...
No categorial support for radical ontic structural realism

2016/6/14
Radical ontic structural realism (ROSR) asserts an ontological commitment to 'free-standing' physical structures understood solely in terms of fundamental relations, without any recourse to relata whi...
Did Perrin's experiments convert Poincaré to Scientific Realism?
Atomism Fundamentalism Henri Poincare Scientific Realism Structural Realism
2016/6/13
In this paper I argue that Poincaré’s acceptance of the atom does not indicate a shift from instrumentalism to scientific realism. I examine the implications of Poincaré’s acceptance of the existence ...
Epistemic Structural Realism and Poincare's Philosophy of Science
structural realism Poincare
2016/6/12
Recent discussions of structuralist approaches to scientific theories have stemmed primarily from Worrall's (1989), in which he defends a position (since characterized `epistemic structural realism') ...
Realism and objectivism in quantum mechanics

2016/5/30
The present study attempts to provide a consistent and coherent account of what the world could be like, given the conceptual framework and results of contemporary quantum theory. It is suggested that...
Ontic structural realism and the interpretation of quantum mechanics
ontic structural realism epistemic structural realism scientific realism quantum mechanics entanglement many worlds interpretation Bohmian mechanics GRW
2016/5/30
This paper argues that ontic structural realism (OSR) faces a dilemma: either it remains on the general level of realism with respect to the structure of a given theory, but then it is, like epistemic...
Does Structural Realism Provide the Best Explanation of the Predictive Success of Science?
Structural Realism Phlogiston Chemistry Scientific realism
2016/5/30
I examine Carrier’s and Ladyman’s structural realist (‘SR’) explanation of the predictive success of phlogiston chemistry. On their account, it succeeds because phlogiston chemists grasped that there ...
Statistical VS Wave Realism in the Foundations of Quantum Mechanics
quantum realism quantum states wavefunction
2016/5/30
Different realistic attitudes towards wavefunctions and quantum states are as old as quantum theory itself. Recently Pusey, Barret and Rudolph (PBR) on the one hand, and Auletta and Tarozzi (AT) on th...
A " RIP VAN WINKLE HYPOTHESIS " TO RESOLVE THE REALISM - ANTIREALISM DEBATE

2015/8/3
The intensity of debate between the realists and antirealists shows no sign of abating. Here a new hypothesis is proposed to resolve the issue. The requirement of consistency and continuity are built-...
Fictions, Inference, and Realism
Representation, Fictionalism, Models, Idealisation, Realism, Pragmatism
2011/9/8
Abstract: It is often assumed without argument that fictionalism in the philosophy of science contradicts scientific realism. This paper is a critical analysis of this assumption. The kind of fictiona...
Scientific Realism, the Galilean Strategy, and Representation
Scientific Realism Representation Models Inference Instrumentalism Pragmatism Philip Kitcher
2011/9/8
This paper critically reviews Philip Kitcher’s most recent epistemology of science, real realism. I argue that this view is unstable under different understandings of the term “representation”, and th...
We present a precise form of structural realism, called 'group structural realism,' which identifies 'structure' in quantum theory with symmetry groups. However, working out the details of this view a...
ARE UNCONCEIVED ALTERNATIVES A PROBLEM FOR SCIENTIFIC REALISM?
UNCONCEIVED ALTERNATIVES SCIENTIFIC REALISM
2009/9/11
Kyle Stanford starts his a recent book, Exceeding Our Grasp, with the claim that “the most powerful challenge to scientific realism has yet to be formulated” (2006: 9). He goes on to formulate what he...
