摘要

摘要伊斯兰神学对科学哲学有什么看法？后古典穆斯林思想家的著作提供了大量研究不足的材料，这些材料与科学探究和理论化的本体论地位、范围和特征有关。伊斯兰传统对不可观测、普遍性和因果关系产生了微妙的形而上学和认识论见解。穆斯林天文学家对亚里士多德-托勒密模型中的缺陷做出了复杂的反应。在当代科学现实主义和反现实主义之间的争论中，结构现实主义是一个备受讨论的中间立场，它表明了对许多这些见解的回归。这对关于宗教与科学之间关系的流行讨论提出了挑战。

Shades of Structural Realism in Post-classical Islamic Thought

ABSTRACT What does Islamic theology have to say about the philosophy of science? The writings of post-classical Muslim thinkers offer a wealth of understudied material relevant to conceptualizing the ontological status, scope, and character of scientific inquiry and theorization. The Islamic tradition developed nuanced metaphysical and epistemological insights on unobservables, universals, and causality. Muslim astronomers developed sophisticated responses to perceived deficiencies in the Aristotelian-Ptolemaic model. In the contemporary debate between scientific realism and anti-realism, structural realism is a much-discussed middle ground which suggests a return to many of these insights. This challenges popular discourse on the relation between religion and science.

期刊介绍： Membership of The Center for Theology and the Natural Sciences (CTNS) includes a subscription to Theology and Science . To become a member, please click here to view the current options. The primary editorial goal of Theology and Science is to publish critically reviewed articles that promote the creative mutual interaction between the natural sciences and theology. While the journal assumes the integrity of each domain, its primary aim is to explore this interaction in terms of the implications of the natural sciences for constructive research in philosophical and systematic theology, the philosophical and theological elements within and underlying theoretical research in the natural sciences, and the relations and interactions between theological and scientific methodologies. The secondary editorial goal is to monitor and critically assess debates and controversies arising in the broader field of science and religion. Thus, Theology and Science will investigate, analyze, and report on issues as they arise with the intention of prompting further academic discussion of them.This editorial policy is formulated with the guiding confidence that a serious dialogue between science and theology will lead to a variety of new and progressive research programs, and that these in turn will yield new insights, deeper understanding, and new knowledge at the frontiers of science and religion.
