Position Andreas Hüttemann: Bas van Fraassen Niederländischer Wissenschaftstheoretiker Bas van Fraassen (*1941, Goes, Niederlande) gehört zu den bedeutendsten Wissenschaftstheoretikern der Gegenwart. Es gelang ihm, ein empiristisches Verständnis der Wissenschaften zu artikulieren, das nicht denjenigen Einwänden ausgesetzt war, mit denen die empiristische Tradition im Anschluss an die Zeit des Wiener Kreises konfrontiert worden war. Van Fraassen hat 1966 in Pittsburgh bei Grünbaum mit der Arbeit Die Grundlagen einer kausalen Theorie der Zeit promoviert. Darin schloss er an die Theorien Reichenbachs und Grünbaums an und vertrat eine relationale Theorie der Raum-Zeit, derzufolge Raum und Zeit nicht als eigenständige Ge-genstände existieren. Vielmehr existieren allein einzelne physikalische Gegenstände, Er-eignisse und Prozesse, die in vielfältigen Be-ziehungen zueinander stehen und so eine komplexe relationale Struktur bilden, die wir in unseren Theorien als Raum und Zeit repräsentieren. Van Fraassens eigener Einschätzung zufolge hat sich seine Formulierung der empiristischen Position teils aus den Herausforderungen bei der Verteidigung dieser Raum-Zeit-Theorie ergeben. Eine weitere wichtige Quelle für seine spätere Position war seine Beschäftigung mit der Logik. Wesentliche begriffliche Werkzeuge, mithilfe derer er seinen Empirismus expliziert, wie z. B. den Modellbegriff, hat er ihrem Repertoire entnommen. Von seinen eigenen Arbeiten ist hier insbe-sondere seine einflussreiche Konzeption der "Supervaluation" zu erwähnen. Dabei handelt es sich um einen Beitrag zur sogenannten "freien Logik", einem Teil der Logik, in der auch Aussagen über nicht-existierende Dinge zugelassen sind. Die Supervaluation ist eine Methode, Aussagen, in denen singuläre Terme ohne Bezug auftreten (wie z. B. Pegasus oder der jetzige König von Frank-reich), Wahrheitswerte zuzuordnen.

Full text available as: Microsoft Word - Requires a viewer, such as Microsoft Word Viewer PDF - Requires a viewer, such as Adobe Acrobat Reader or other PDF viewer. Abstract Science represents the phenomena and it does so by providing representations of nature with the phenomena at best as a part. Criteria of adequacy for a representation pertain to accuracy and truth; but that representation is selective and may require distortion even in the selected parameters is an old and familiar point, intimately related to the insight that representation is intentional with adequacy relative to its particular purpose. If we add to this that observation and measurement are perspectival and that the appearances to be saved are the perspectival measurement outcomes, the question whether this "saving" is an explanatory relation in contemporary physics can provide a new focus for the realist/anti-realist debate. The Born rule and von Neumann's "collapse" postulate in quantum mechanics provide a telling case. Keywords: philosophy of science; representation; realism/anti-realism; models and idealization

Bas C. van Fraassen Brief Bio 1999-2000 Terry Lectureship Bas C. van Fraassen is one of the world’s foremost contributors to philosophical logic and the philosophy of science. In the latter field he is known for strongly empiricist arguments against influential forms of scientific realism. In his Terry Lecture series he sought to view religion as well as science, and the philosophical enterprise, from an empiricist point of view, arguing that empiricists should see philosophy, not as metaphysical knowledge, but as an existential stance. The overall title for his lectures was The Empirical Stance. The titles of his four lectures were: Against Analytic Metaphysics; Empiricism as Will and Idea; Scientific Revolution/Conversion as a Philosophical Problem; and What is Science and What Is It To Be Secular? Professor van Fraassen joined Princeton University’s Department of Philosophy in 1982. His interests include philosophy of science (especially subjects related to probability theory and to the foundations of physics), philosophical logic, and empiricism. His the author of An Introduction to the Philosophy of Time and Space Formal Semantics and Logic The Scientific Image Laws and Symmetry (1989), and

THE EMPIRICAL STANCE Bas C. van Fraassen 304 pp. 5 1/2 x 8 1/4 Cloth ISBN 0-300-08874-4 Paper ISBN 0-300-10306-9 What is empiricism and what could it be? Bas C. van Fraassen, one of the world’s foremost contributors to philosophical logic and the philosophy of science, here undertakes a fresh consideration of these questions and offers a program for renewal of the empiricist tradition. The empiricist tradition is not and could not be defined by common doctrines, but embodies a certain stance in philosophy, van Fraassen says. This stance is displayed first of all in a searing, recurrent critique of metaphysics, and second in a focus on experience that requires a voluntarist view of belief and opinion. Van Fraassen focuses on the philosophical problems of scientific and conceptual revolutions and on the not unrelated ruptures between religious and secular ways of seeing or conceiving of ourselves. He explores what it is to be or not be secular and points the way toward a new relationship between secularism and science within philosophy. “This work argues powerfully for a radical redirection of much contemporary thinking in epistemology and other important topics. It should force all of us to rethink the nature of analytic philosophy.”

Sola Experientia ? Feyerabend's Refutation of Classical Empiricism Philosophy of Science 64 (Proceedings): S385-S395 (1997) Bas C. van Fraassen Philosophy Department Princeton University Princeton, N.J. 08544 USA Feyerabend's "Classical Empiricism" (1970) draws on a 17th century Jesuit argument against Protestant fundamentalism. The argument is very general, and applies to any simple foundationalist epistemology. Feyerabend uses it against Classical Empiricism roughly, the view that what is to be believed is exactly what experience establishes, and no more which he identifies as among other things Newton's "dogmatic ideology". I will first examine the argument, then ask whether it is perhaps too powerful, a sceptical argument which, if cogent, undermines any pretense to rational belief. Feyerabend explains why the argument could have had little force in the targeted Protestant community. But that is significant only if we can think of its epistemic stance as rational. Feyerabend's irony leaves us with doubts, and yet, perhaps, also with some hope of a genuinely promising development. 1. The Jesuit Argument

Home Thema Programma Spelregels ... Organisatie Bas Van Fraassen Is ondertussen "het moderne", het idee dat er wetenschappelijke vooruitgang bestaat, door het "postmodernisme" geheel platgewalst? Dat lijkt niet het geval. De in Nederland geboren en in New York werkende wetenschapsfilosoof Bas van Fraassen bij voorbeeld ontkent dat er überhaupt sprake is van een probleem. We hoeven helemaal niet te geloven dat de wereld in elkaar zit zoals de huidige theorieën zeggen. De accumulatie van wetenschappelijke kennis betreft uitsluitend en alleen de verschijnselen. Onverifieerbare beweringen zijn weliswaar geen betekenisloos gewauwel, alleen doen we er verstandig aan ze niet te geloven omdat dit geloof niet wetenschappelijk onderbouwd kan worden. Het doet er kortom niet toe dat de wetenschapsgeschiedenis (Kuhn, Feyerabend) ons leert dat de wereld volgens de volgende generatie theorieën weer totaal anders in elkaar zal zitten. In een kranteninterview legde Van Fraassen het als volgt uit: Bron: Interview door Dirk van Delft en F.A. Muller (NRC/Handelsblad 19-06-1999)
