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...
This paper challenges “traditional measurement-accuracy realism”, according to which there are in nature quantities of which concrete systems have definite values. An accurate measurement outcome is o...
I erect a framework within the semantic view of theories for explaining the empirical success of internally inconsistent models and theories, with scientific realism in mind. The framework is an...
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 ...
Can the Pessimistic Induction Be Saved from Semantic Anti-Realism about Scientific Theory?
pessimistic induction realism anti-realism supervaluations
2016/6/13
Scientific anti-realists who appeal to the pessimistic induction (PI) claim that the theoretical terms of past scientific theories often fail to refer to anything. But on standard views in philosophy ...
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
classical physical ontology quantum entanglement nonseparability contextuality quantum object objectivity realism
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...
Mere exposure and aesthetic realism
aesthetic realism aesthetic antirealism canons mere exposure
2015/8/14
I admire much of Nanay’s approach to understanding aesthetics, and not simply because I am an author to which much of the article is directed. In attacking aesthetic antirealism, the notion that quali...
A " RIP VAN WINKLE HYPOTHESIS " TO RESOLVE THE REALISM - ANTIREALISM DEBATE
realism antrealism no-miracles agument
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-...
