Abstract

Ontological realism argues that scientific entities are independent of scientific practices. This paper introduces the significance of ontological realism for understanding the belief in the existence of scientific entities. It then discusses another concept: the dependence of scientific entities over scientific practice. Finally, it is argued that the two theses are not excluding between themselves.
