Book excerpt: Ce travail porte sur le débat entre le réalisme et l'anti-réalisme scientifique qui apparaît comme un des sujets centraux en philosophie des sciences contemporaines. La diversité des approches, ainsi que de ces apologies forme une grande palette de points de vue. Le mémoire aspire à esquisser un cadre conceptuel de ce débat en envisageant des thèses fondatrices de deux conceptions opposées afin de confronter leurs arguments majeurs. L'étude de l'une et de l'autre permettra de comparer les forces argumentatives des deux côtés du débat afin de tracer des perspectives du développement des deux.
Book Synopsis Réalisme et anti-réalisme dans la philosophie des sciences contemporaines by : Rong-lin Wang

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Est-il justifié de croire que nos meilleures théories scientifiques sont vraies ? A-t-on de bonnes raisons de croire que les entités inobservables postulées dans les théories scientifiques sont réelles ? A ces questions, un réaliste en philosophie des sciences tend à donner des réponses affirmatives. Un anti-réaliste, au contraire, soutient que ni la croyance à la vérité des théories, ni la croyance à la réalité des entités postulées ne sont justifiées. Bien que le débat entre réalistes et anti-réalistes trouve son origine dans l’Antiquité, il a fait son retour dès la chute de l’empirisme logique dans les années 1960, et a atteint son apogée dans les années 1980. Cette thèse a pour but d’exposer les difficultés que les deux parties belligérantes rencontrent. Elle passe en examen les arguments incertains donnés par les deux parties belligérantes, et montre les défauts qui s’y trouvent. Ces arguments examinés sont tous glanés dans la philosophie des sciences contemporaine, en particulier dans les doctrines de quatre philosophes distingués, à savoir P. Duhem, B. van Fraassen, N. Cartwright, et A. Fine.

Book Synopsis Hilary Putnam et la question du réalisme by : Pierre-Yves Rochefort
Download or read book Hilary Putnam et la question du réalisme written by Pierre-Yves Rochefort and published by Presses de l'Université Laval. This book was released on 2022-04-06T00:00:00-04:00 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selon une interprétation répandue, le philosophe américain Hilary Putnam (1926-2016) aurait changé d’avis à deux reprises au sujet de la question du réalisme. Il aurait d’abord adhéré au réalisme métaphysique, qu’il a critiqué vertement au milieu des années 1970, au profit d’une forme d’idéalisme ou de « constructivisme des faits », le réalisme interne, auquel il aurait finalement renoncé au début des années 1990 pour retourner à un réalisme du sens commun. L’auteur soutient au contraire que Putnam n’a jamais véritablement changé d’avis sur la question du réalisme et qu’il a toujours défendu, sous différentes appellations, la même forme de réalisme, en phase avec la science. Ce retournement met en lumière un certain nombre d’erreurs d’interprétation que l’on retrouve couramment à l’endroit des plus importantes contributions de Putnam en épistémologie générale, en philosophie du langage, en philosophie des sciences et des mathématiques. Bien que le propos s’adresse avant tout aux spécialistes, le style adopté par l’auteur confère à l’ouvrage les qualités nécessaires à une excellente introduction à la pensée d’un des philosophes les plus influents de l’après-guerre.
Book Synopsis Réalisme et vérité by : Pierre-Luc Dostie Proulx
Download or read book Réalisme et vérité written by Pierre-Luc Dostie Proulx and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Étant donné l'universalité de la médiation linguistique conditionnant notre rapport au monde, à quoi fait-on référence lorsqu'on utilise le concept de "vérité" en épistémologie contemporaine? Doit-on nécessairement supposer que nos énoncés correspondent à une réalité extérieure pour faire sens du concept de vérité? Un réalisme sans la représentation est-il possible? Le présent mémoire tente de répondre à ces interrogations en exposant deux conceptions de la vérité radicalement différentes: celle de Jürgen Habermas et celle de Richard Rorty. Après une présentation des grandes répercussions du tournant linguistique sur les conceptions épistémologiques classiques, j'analyserai la position néopragmatiste rortienne qui affirme que le tournant linguistique a épuisé la validité conceptuelle du dualisme croyance-vérité. J'expliquerai en quoi consistent la position antiréaliste de Rorty, son traitement déflationniste de la distinction vérité-justification et ses thèses mélioristes. Cela me mènera à poser la question suivante: est-ce possible de préserver un concept transculturel de vérité après le tournant linguistique? Dans le but de répondre à cette question, j'exposerai la théorie épistémologique que développe Jürgen Habermas dans Vérité et justification. J'expliquerai la conception bidimensionnelle de la vérité qu'il y développe en insistant sur l'interaction constante des sphères de l'action et de la discussion. Cette exposition me permettra de procéder à une analyse exhaustive du débat entre ces deux auteurs. J'insisterai sur leurs désaccords concernant l'explication théorique, du point de vue des acteurs, du déroulement de la praxis quotidienne et des processus de justification.

Download or read book Continental Realism and Its Discontents written by Marie-Eve Morin and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2017-06-23 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Speculative realism challenges philosophical approaches and traditions for supposedly failing to do justice to the real world. Taking this realist challenge seriously, Continental Realism and Its Discontents refuses to discard the philosophical contributions of Kant, Schelling, Merleau-Ponty, Derrida and Nancy without closer scrutiny. Instead, the contributors turn to these thinkers to meet the challenge of realism in contemporary philosophy.

Book Synopsis Philosophy in a Time of Terror by : Giovanna Borradori
Download or read book Philosophy in a Time of Terror written by Giovanna Borradori and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-05-28 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea for Philosophy in a Time of Terror was born hours after the attacks on 9/11 and was realized just weeks later when Giovanna Borradori sat down with Jürgen Habermas and Jacques Derrida in New York City, in separate interviews, to evaluate the significance of the most destructive terrorist act ever perpetrated. This book marks an unprecedented encounter between two of the most influential thinkers of our age as here, for the first time, Habermas and Derrida overcome their mutual antagonism and agree to appear side by side. As the two philosophers disassemble and reassemble what we think we know about terrorism, they break from the familiar social and political rhetoric increasingly polarized between good and evil. In this process, we watch two of the greatest intellects of the century at work.
Book Synopsis Socialism of Fools by : Michele Battini
Download or read book Socialism of Fools written by Michele Battini and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2016-04-05 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Socialism of Fools, Michele Battini focuses on the critical moment during the Enlightenment in which anti-Jewish stereotypes morphed into a sophisticated, modern social anti-Semitism. He recovers the potent anti-Jewish, anticapitalist propaganda that cemented the idea of a Jewish conspiracy in the European mind and connects it to the atrocities that characterized the Jewish experience in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Beginning in the eighteenth century, counter-Enlightenment intellectuals and intransigent Catholic writers singled out Jews for conspiring to exploit self-sustaining markets and the liberal state. These ideas spread among socialist and labor movements in the nineteenth century and intensified during the Long Depression of the 1870s. Anti-Jewish anticapitalism then migrated to the Habsburg Empire with the Christian Social Party; to Germany with the Anti-Semitic Leagues; to France with the nationalist movements; and to Italy, where Revolutionary Syndicalists made anti-Jewish anticapitalism the basis of an alliance with the nationalists. Exemplified best in the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, the infamous document that "leaked" Jewish plans to conquer the world, the Jewish-conspiracy myth inverts reality and creates a perverse relationship to historical and judicial truth. Isolating the intellectual roots of this phenomenon and its contemporary resonances, Battini shows us why, so many decades after the Holocaust, Jewish people continue to be a powerful political target.

Book Synopsis Living Off Landscape by : Francois Jullien
Download or read book Living Off Landscape written by Francois Jullien and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2018-01-09 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is it only through vision that we can perceive a landscape? Is the space opened by the landscape truly an expanse cut off by the horizon? Do we observe a landscape in the way that we watch a 'show'? What, ultimately, does it mean to 'look'? In this important new book, one of France's most influential living theorists argues that the first civilization to truly consider landscape was China. In giving landscape the name 'mountain(s)-water(s)', the Chinese language provides a powerful alternative to Western biases. The Chinese conception speaks of a correlation between high and low, between the still and the motile, between what has form and what is formless, between what we see and what we hear. No longer a matter of 'vision', landscape becomes a matter of living. Francois Jullien invites the reader to explore reason's unthought choices, and to take a fresh look at our more basic involvement in the world.

This book advances cutting-edge theories and methods, with the aim of moving beyond the scholarship that reproduces insecurity and exclusion. The breadth of approaches encompasses much of the current critical criminological scholarship, serving as a counterpoint to the growth of managerial and administrative criminologies and the rise of explicitly exclusionary and punitive state policies and practices with respect to ‘crime’ and ‘security.’ This edited collection featuring two books, one in English and one in French, includes important contributions to knowledge and public policy by eminent experts and emerging scholars. This book is published in English.
Book Synopsis A History of Six Ideas by : W. Tatarkiewicz
Download or read book A History of Six Ideas written by W. Tatarkiewicz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of aesthetics, like the histories of other sciences, may be treated in a two-fold manner: as the history of the men who created the field of study, or as the history of the questions that have been raised and resolved in the course of its pursuit. The earlier History of Aesthetics (3 volumes, 1960-68, English-language edition 1970-74) by the author of the present book was a history of men, of writers and artists who in centuries past have spoken up concerning beauty and art, form and crea tivity. The present book returns to the same subject, but treats it in a different way: as the history of aesthetic questions, concepts, theories. The matter of the two books, the previous and the present, is in part the same; but only in part: for the earlier book ended with the 17th century, while the present one brings the subject up to our own times. And from the 18th century to the 20th much happened in aesthetics; it was only in that period that aesthetics achieved recognition as a separate science, received a name of its own, and produced theories that early scholars and artists had never dreamed of.

Book Synopsis Quine's Naturalism by : Paul A. Gregory
Download or read book Quine's Naturalism written by Paul A. Gregory and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2011-11-03 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: W. V. Quine was the most important naturalistic philosopher of the twentieth century and a major impetus for the recent resurgence of the view that empirical science is our best avenue to knowledge. His views, however, have not been well understood. Critics charge that Quine's naturalized epistemology is circular and that it cannot be normative. Yet, such criticisms stem from a cluster of fundamental traditional assumptions regarding language, theory, and the knowing subject - the very presuppositions that Quine is at pains to reject. Through investigation of Quine's views regarding language, knowledge, and reality, the author offers a new interpretation of Quine's naturalism. The naturalism/anti-naturalism debate can be advanced only by acknowledging and critiquing the substantial theoretical commitments implicit in the traditional view. Gregory argues that the responses to the circularity and non-normativity objections do just that. His analysis further reveals that Quine's departure from the tradition penetrates the conception of the knowing subject, and he thus offers a new and engaging defence of Quine's naturalism.
