Review of The Metaphysics of Science and Aim-Oriented Empiricism, by
Nicholas Maxwell
Damian Fernandez Beanato
Ontic Structural Realism (OSR) states that a realistic reading of scientific theories (especially of modern physics) requires to take structures as ontologically fundamental. Regardless of how this commitment is articulated, OSR proponents agree that the appropriate framework for developing such a position is the semantic approach to theories. I argue that, at least in aspects relevant to the formulation of OSR, the semantic approach is not superior to the syntactic one. I also show that the Received View has the necessary conceptual resources to adequately express the metaphysical commitments of OSR.

El presente volumen presenta al Realismo Estructural y sus variantes en el marco de los debates acerca del Realismo Científico mediante un abordaje doble. En primer término, se procura dar cuenta del contexto histórico (filosófico y científico) en el que se desarrollaron sus tesis principales; en segundo lugar, se emprende una reconstrucción y análisis crítico de sus fundamentos y de las principales objeciones que se les han formulado.
de establecer la distinción observable/inobservable, sobre la que se erige la noción central de 'adecuación empírica'. Ladyman (2000) plantea al respecto una objeción novedosa, señalando que dicha distinción implica indirectamente la adopción de un Realismo Modal (RM), incompatible con las intuiciones antirrealistas del empirismo
constructivo. Respondiendo a esa imputación, Monton y van Fraassen (2003) niegan esos cargos aduciendo que (a) el empirismo constructivo no implica el RM, y (b) aunque así fuera, ambas posiciones no resultan incompatibles. En el presente trabajo analizamos las consecuencias de esa respuesta a la luz de una posición alternativa, el Realismo Estructural (RE). Concretamente, nos proponemos mostrar
que un empirista constructivo consecuente puede aceptar una Inferencia a la Mejor Explicación (IME) que dé cuenta de la adecuación empírica a partir de la correspondencia entre las teorías y hechos modales objetivos, sosteniendo así una variante del Realismo Científico como lo es el RE.
