试论波普尔哲学与后现代哲学的“家族相似”性

Study on Popper’s Philosophy and “Family Resemblance” of Postmodernism

从后现代的"家族相似"性的三点表现入手,从本质观、真理观和形而上学观三个方面将波普尔哲学与后现代哲学"家族相似性"进行比较研究,研究表明波普尔与后现代家族既近又远,即反对本质主义并不代表否定本质;批判真理并不代表否定真理;摒弃形而上学并不代表否定形而上学。研究意义在于从侧面暴露出后现代哲学本身弱势的同时,也为波普尔哲学的研究带来新的可能性和选择。这反映了当代科学哲学的一种多元性、开放性的发展趋势。

Based on the three representations of family resemblance of postmodernism, this paper compares Karl Popper＇s philosophy with the family resemblance of postmodern philosophy from the perspectives of essence, truth and metaphysics. Its findings indicate that Popper treats the postmodern family both near and far; that is to say, he opposes essentialism but does not deny it, criticizes truth but does not deny it, and abandons metaphysics but does not deny it. The research significance lies not only in revealing the weaknesses of postmodern philosophy itself, but also in bringing new possibilities and choices to Popper studies, which reflects a diversified and open development trend of contemporary philosophy of science.
