Matthias Egg (2021) argues that scientific realism can be reconciled with quantum mechanics and its foundational underdetermination by focusing realist commitments on 'effective' ontology. I argue in general terms that Egg's effective realism is ontologically overly …

Lohrey A, Boreham B. Lohrey A, et al. Commun Integr Biol. 2020 Oct 11;13(1):147-159. doi: 10.1080/19420889.2020.1822583. Commun Integr Biol. 2020. PMID: 33149801 Free PMC article.
We propose that the universe is nonlocal and that the appropriate worldview or paradigm for this understanding is nonlocal realism. Currently the worldview of local realism guides and frames the understanding and interpretations of science. ...We offer a more inclus …

Rydenfelt H. Rydenfelt H. Theor Med Bioeth. 2023 Apr;44(2):165-176. doi: 10.1007/s11017-023-09616-4. Epub 2023 Mar 3. Theor Med Bioeth. 2023. PMID: 36867309 Free PMC article.
It is argued that the emergence of controversial views in discussions of theoretical medicine and bioethics is best explained by the assumption of moral realism within those discursive practices. Neither of the main alternatives of realism in contemporary meta-ethic …
