Structural realisms

Fabio Gironi

pp. 86-111

Abstract

In the previous chapter, I spelt out what I believe the commitments of any realist metaphysics should be, articulated through the two directives of historicism and naturalism. It is time now to examine in detail the specific form of scientific realism that can move towards a naturalist revision of Badiou's project, that is structural realism. In order to do that, a modicum of historical background is in order.
