摘要
休谟提出"归纳问题"后,哲学家主要考虑如何解决这一问题。但本文不是讨论如何解决,而是追究归纳问题之所以产生的原因:归纳问题的根源在于人的存在方式本身;归纳问题的实质是一个关于时间的问题。人不能不在时间中生存,而在时间中的生存是有限的,但人在时间中的思考却指向无限。归纳问题正是有限的经验的人同无限展开的可能世界之间纠缠、紧张的产物。
Since David Hume brought forward "Induction Problem", considerations of philosophers have focused on answers to it. However, the purpose of my paper is not on how to resolve the problem, but on the reason why induction becomes a problem. My viewpoint is that the reason why Hume considered induction as a problem is that he ignored the factor of TIME during the course of induction. So, induction problem is induced by the relation between the application of induction and unexperienced world, by the conflicting relation between the way in which human being gets confirmable knowledge and the way in which man lives. Summarily, Induction Problem is the product of the tension between finite human being and infinite world.
