In these papers derived from an international conference held in
1992 in Beijing, Chinese and Western philosophers treat current as
well as historically situated issues of realism and anti-realism in
the understanding of scientific knowledge. There are four sections:
(1) philosophical arguments proper (Hilpinen, Krejci, Musgrave,
Niiniluoto, Qiu Renzong, Sfendoni-Mentzou, Bahm, Wallner and
Peschl); (2) realism and general methodology (James Brown,
Franklin, Gavroglu, Kaiser, Chin-Tai Kim, Wartofsky, Watkins,
Wright, Wu Qiongbing, Yin Zhengkun); (3) physical sciences (Fan
Dainian, Folse, He Zuoxiu, Hong Dingguo, Jin Wulun, Johansson, Li
Li, Luo and Hu, Mao Shiying, Schagrin, Schlagel, Zhou Jihong); (4)
social and biological sciences (MAki, Shanahan, Paul Tang and Ralph
Brown III, Cohen). The conference was inspired by the late
Professor Tscha Hung of Beijing, for many years Director of the
Institute of Foreign Philosophy at Beijing University, and a
distinguished PhD from the University of Vienna in 1934 under
Moritz Schlick.
