New Perspectives on Neo-Kantianism and the Sciences Hardback
Edited by Helmut Pulte, Jan Baedke, Daniel Koenig, Gregor Nickel
Part of the Routledge Studies in Nineteenth-Century Philosophy series
Hardback
Description
This volume considers the exchange between the Neo-Kantian tradition in German philosophy and the sciences from the last third of the nineteenth century to the Great war and partly beyond.
During this period, various scientific disciplines underwent modernisation processes characterised by an increasing empirical inclination and a decline in the influence of metaphysics, the pluralisation of theories, and the historical and pragmatic revitalisation of scientific claims against philosophy.
The various contributions look at the ways in which a certain ‘Kantian orthodoxy’ was influenced by these new developments and whether (and how) itself had some impact on the development of the sciences.
The volume is not limited to the 'exact sciences' of mathematics and physics, which are particularly important for the Kantian tradition, but also takes into account less recognised disciplines such as biology, chemistry, technology and psychology.
It is complemented by contributions that contrast Neo-Kantianism with other 'scientific philosophies' of the period in question. New Perspectives on Neo-Kantianism and the Sciences will be of interest to scholars and advanced students working on Neo-Kantianism, 19th- and 20th-century philosophy, and the history and philosophy of science.
