Causalità e realtà nel dibattito sulla meccanica quantistica degli anni '30 del Novecento : una possibile ricostruzione / R. Pettoello. - In: RIVISTA DI STORIA DELLA FILOSOFIA. - ISSN 0393-2516. - 69:1(2014), pp. 83-126. [10.3280/SF2014-001004]
Abstract:
A possible reconstruction. As with any scientific revolution, quantum mechanics entailed
a profound revision of our fundamental epistemological concepts and also of our
worldview as a whole. This was the case for the concepts of causality and reality.
Around these concepts, there arose in the third decade of the last century a heated debate
in which almost all the scientists and philosophers of the time took part and which
in a certain sense is still going on today. The Author provides a reconstruction of
the various different positions, from the “conservative” attempt to defend determinism
to the most radical stochastic positions, and singles out in Ernst Cassirer’s solution the
most convincing approach.
