The Structuralistic Outlook of Scientific Theories

Zhang Hua-xia

Abstract The received view of philosophy of science had been defeated in the 1970s. In recent decades, many philosophers of science made great efforts  to develop a so-called Structuralist Program in the field of structure of scientific theories, which attempts to overcome the defects of logical empiricism and the extremeness of the historical school of philosophy of science. This paper introduces the basic ideas of structuralism in philosophy of science and makes some comments on neo-empiricism based on these ideas.

Key words: set theory; model; theory-elements; theory-nets; theory-holons
