Preferred term

naturalized epistemology  

Definition(s)

  • Naturalism in its 20th-century American incarnation seeks to align philosophical inquiry with scientific inquiry generally. In this form, naturalism rejects a priori claims to knowledge (i.e., it rejects a view of knowledge as not explicable as part of the natural world) and links justification to the methods of science, broadly understood.
