critical realism  

Definición

  • Critical realism provides a distinctive account of the bases of the natural and social sciences, challenging versions of empiricism and positivism but also offering an alternative to social constructionist and postmodernist accounts of the social. Thus it represents a distinctive approach to the ontological and epistemological underpinnings of social research, rejecting the polarized terms of much debate between these positions.
