Global Anti-Realism

"Few philosophical debates have generated as much interest - or as much confusion - over the last several decades as those over realism and anti-realism. In Global Anti-Realism, Andrew Cortens imposes some much needed order on the field by arguing that realist/anti-realist debates of all kinds display a common structure. While realists think of themselves as believing the claims expressed by a certain range of sentences, anti-realists refuse to accept the sentences as interpreted by their opponents. They either accept the realist interpretation while rejecting the relevant sentences, or endorse the sentences under some alternative interpretation."--BOOK JACKET. "Cortens extends this simple model for understanding so-called "local" disputes over realism in areas like morality, causality, and mathematics in order to formulate a clear conception of a "global" dispute over realism and anti-realism."--BOOK JACKET.
