Abstract(s)

In his paper "Is Naturalism the Unsurpassable Philosophy for the Sciences of Man in the 21st Century?", Daniel Andler put forth a position in the sciences of Man he called 'liberalized naturalism'. Andler's brand of naturalism faces a few difficulties though. The purpose of this essay is to highlight these and to suggest a way of overcoming them.
