劳斯对科学实在论之争的超越

Rouse's Transcendence Over the Controversies About Scientific Realism

作为围绕建构经验论的新争论而出现的新型科学实在论,对理论实体的探索大都避免超越语言框架直接与外在世界接触。这种新型科学实在论呈现出三种倾向,其前景不容乐观。在对实在论之争进行清算的基础上,劳斯作了与工具主义的厘清,主张真理紧缩论;通过置身于由目标、实践与用具构成的塑造而非表象中来重释实在的意义和独立性。这是科学实践哲学在历史地演化着的实践综合体中对实在论之争的超越。

It is not promising that there are three sorts of tendencies in the transformation of scientific realism caused by the new controversy over the constructive empiricism. The studies of the new scientific realism on theoretical entities are mainly in the linguistic framework instead of dealing with the outside world directly. Having analyzed the faults of the controversy over the scientific realism, Rouse differentiates his theory from the instrumentalism, advocates the deflationary account of truth, and reinterprets the meaning and independence of reality by the configuration of scientific targets, practice and equipment rather than the abstract representation. Rouse＇ s practical philosophy of science has transcended the above mentioned controversies in the ever- evolving comprehensive practice.
