Convergentism: The Pursuit of Truth in the Philosophy of Science
Send us a text In this episode of Philosophy Crossroads, we delve into the fascinating world of convergentism, a philosophical framework that evaluates inference methods based on their capacity to lead us toward the truth over time. Guided by the seminal contributions of Charles Sanders Peirce and Hans Reichenbach, we explore the principles of error correction, statistical consistency, and stability in scientific reasoning. Through engaging thought experiments like the Greek and the Tide, t...
