 Metaphysical realism is often formulated as the idea of one fundamental description of reality as it is in itself. Given such an appeal to an “absolute conception” of “the world as it is independent from our experience” (Williams 1985 [2011: 139]), science may appear as the best candidate for a purely objective description of the world that is independent of subjective human interpretation. In contrast with such a monist ideal of one absolute “view from nowhere” (T. Nagel 1986), pluralist philosophers have emphasized the diversity of scientific concepts and ontologies that are influenced by heterogenous interests and values of scientists. A substantial part of contemporary philosophy of science aims to make sense of this plurality and its implications both for philosophical debates and scientific practices.
