Description

Expand your understanding of social science with Scientific Realism and Human Emancipation. Part of the Routledge Critical Realism series, this text follows Roy Bhaskar's foundational works, A Realist Theory of Science and The Possibility of Naturalism. It offers a deep look into the conception of social science as an explanatory and emancipatory critique. The book addresses the impasse found in contemporary accounts of science, which often stem from an incomplete critique of positivism. By providing a systematic exposition of scientific realism through the lens of transcendental realism, Bhaskar highlights how science functions as an explanatory tool. This work is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in the intersections of philosophy, science, and social critique.
