In both cases it relies upon the adoption of operational criteria designed within the particular perspective under which any single science considers reality. The ?object? so attained has a proper ontological status, dependent on the specific character of the criteria of reference (regional ontologies). This justifies a form of scientific realism. Such perspectives are also the result of a complex cultural-historical situation. The awareness of such a ?historical determinacy? of science justifies including in the philosophy of science the problems of ethics of science, relations of science with metaphysics, and social dimensions of science that overstep the traditional restriction of the philosophy of science to an epistemology of science. It is to this ?context? that the second part of the book is devoted. 606 $aPhilosophy and science 606 $aPhysics 606 $aLogic, Symbolic and mathematical 606 $aEthics 606 $aPhilosophy of nature 606 $aPhilosophy of Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E34000 606 $aHistory and Philosophical Foundations of Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P29000 606 $aMathematical Logic and Foundations$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M24005 606 $aEthics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E14000 606 $aPhilosophy of Nature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E34040 615 0$aPhilosophy and science. 615 0$aPhysics. 615 0$aLogic, Symbolic and mathematical. 615 0$aEthics. 615 0$aPhilosophy of nature. 615 14$aPhilosophy of Science. 615 24$aHistory and Philosophical Foundations of Physics. 615 24$aMathematical Logic and Foundations. 615 24$aEthics. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Nature. 676 $a10 676 $a113 676 $a170 676 $a501 700 $aAgazzi$b Evandro$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$09620 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483391603321 996 $aScientific Objectivity and Its Contexts$92597587 997 $aUNINA
