Scientific Realism & Anti-Realism: New Directions
Mini-Workshop, TU
Dortmund University, 05 December 2025
Emil-Figge-Str. 50, room 0.442, 44227 Dortmund
This workshop brings together philosophers of diverse backgrounds reflecting on the current state of the realism-debate. It will address selective realist approaches to theories in fundamental physics and cosmology, new vistas on induction and confirmation in the context of scientific realism, global perspectives on the realism/anti-realism debate from feminist epistemology, the viability of classic arguments from holism in the face of selectivist approaches, and the subtle status of structuralist approaches to the philosophy of science between realism and anti-realism.
