ABSTRACT The article examines the controversial relation of scientific realism with quantum mechanics. To this end, two distinct discussions are invoked: the discussion about ‘realism’ in the context of quantum mechanics and the discussion about ‘scientific realism’ in the context of the general philosophy of science. The aim is to distinguish them in order, first, to argue that the former—revolving around ‘local realism’ and the theorems of Bell and Kochen–Specker—unjustifiably identifies realism with features of a particular worldview, and thereby fosters the impression that the failure of ‘local realism’ in quantum experiments constitutes a failure of scientific realism too; and, second, in light of the latter discussion, to claim that scientific realism and quantum mechanics can be compatible—there is ground for dealing with quantum measurement simply as a physical mind-independent interaction. Therefore, a realist approach to the theory is possible despite its notorious measurement problem, even if the issue of its interpretation is still disputed.

科学现实主义与量子力学：重新讨论有争议的关系

摘要本文探讨了科学现实主义与量子力学之间存在争议的关系。为此，需要进行两个截然不同的讨论：在量子力学的背景下有关“现实主义”的讨论和在一般科学哲学的背景下有关“科学现实主义”的讨论。目的是为了按顺序区分它们，首先，论证前者（围绕“局部现实主义”以及Bell和Kochen-Specker定理）不合理地将现实主义识别为具有特定世界观的特征，从而形成一种印象，即量子实验中“局部现实主义”的失败也构成了科学现实主义的失败。其次，根据后面的讨论，声称科学的现实主义和量子力学可以兼容-为量子测量简单地作为一种与心理无关的相互作用就存在着基础。因此，尽管理论上存在争议，但尽管存在着争议的解决方法，但仍可以采用一种现实主义的方法。
