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...
No categorial support for radical ontic structural realism
radical ontic structural realism category-theoretic structure topological quantum field theory spacetime structuralism category of Einstein structured spaces algebraic generalisations of general relativity
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...
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') ...
Ontic structural realism and the interpretation of quantum mechanics

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 ...
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...
The paper is a kind of opinionated review paper on current issues in the debate about Structural Realism, roughly the view that we should be committed in the structural rather than object-like content...
Structural Realism versus Standard Scientific Realism: The Case of Phlogiston and Dephlogisticated Air
ontic structural realism approximate truth reference theoretical terms phlogiston
2009/6/9
The aim of this paper is to revisit the phlogiston theory to see what can be learned from it about the relationship between scientific realism, approximate truth and successful reference. It is argued...
The modal nature of structures in ontic structural realism
categorical properties causal properties causation Humeanism quantum entanglement
2009/3/26
Ontic structural realism is the view that structures are what is real in the first place in the domain of fundamental physics. The structures are usually conceived as including a primitive modality. H...
Ontic structural realism (OSR) as defended in the philosophy of science literature to date is crucially motivated by premises citing empirical discoveries of fundamental physics. To this extent its po...
In his paper ``What is Structural Realism?'' James Ladyman drew a distinction between epistemological structural realism and metaphysical (or ontic) structural realism. He also drew a suggestive analo...
Spacetime and Structure: Structural Realism, Neo-Kantianism Idealism, or Relativized A Priorism?
spacetime structural realism structuralism
2008/4/21
The essay examines the relationship, within spacetime theories, between contemporary structural realism, Cassirer’s neo-Kantian structuralism, and Friedman’s defense of the relativized a priori. Despi...
This essay explores the possibility of constructing a structural realist interpretation of spacetime theories that can resolve the ontological debate among substantivalists and relationists. Drawing o...
Spacetime, Structural Realism, and the Substantival/Relational Debate: An Ontological Investigation from the Perspective of Structural Realism in the Philosophy of Mathematics
spacetime structural realism substantivalism relationism
2008/4/21
This essay explores structural realist interpretation of spacetime with special emphasis on the close interrelationship between, on the one hand, ontological debates in spacetime structural realism an...
This paper considers whether, and how, the mind can be incorporated into structural realism. Section 1 begins with some definitions, and briefly reviews the main problems which beset structural realis...
