Critical Realism--Interventions
2 total works
This text is one of the cornerstones of the critical realist position, which is now widely seen as offering a viable alternative to move positivism and post modernism. This revised edition includes a new foreword. "A Realist Theory of Science" (originally 1975, reprinted Verso, 1996).
In this radical book, Roy Bhaskar expands his philosophy of critical realism with an audacious re-synthesis of many aspects of Western and Eastern thought. Arguing that the existence of God provides the fundamental structure of the world, he renders plausible ideas of reincarnation, karma and moksha or liberation.
From East to West signifies a major new development in critical realism. It will stimulate debate in ontology, epistemology, ethics, political philosophy and the philosophy of religion.
