Description

Explore the foundational shifts in modern Western philosophy with Empiricism and the Metatheory of the Social Sciences. Part of the Routledge Studies in Critical Realism series, this work addresses the long-standing conception of the universe as a machine governed by exceptionless empirical regularities. This text challenges both positivistically-minded naturalists and anti-naturalists who view human action as a domain of freedom separate from science. By examining Roy Bhaskar's system of philosophy, this book provides the essential groundwork for understanding the developments that followed in the field. It offers a deep look into the philosophical moves that define how we perceive human action and scientific understanding. This is a necessary resource for students and scholars interested in the intersection of social science, philosophy, and critical realism.
