Abstract

This paper defends the usefulness of the concept of philosophical progress and the common assumption that philosophy and science aim to make the same, or a comparable, kind of progress. It does so by responding to Yafeng Shan's (2022) arguments that the wealth of research on scientific progress is not applicable or useful to philosophy, and that philosophy doesn't need a concept of progress at all. It is ultimately argued that while Shan's arguments are not successful, they reveal the way forward in developing accounts of philosophical progress.

为什么哲学需要一个进步的概念
本文为哲学进步概念的有用性以及哲学和科学旨在取得相同或可比较的进步的普遍假设进行了辩护。它通过回应亚峰山(2022)的论点来做到这一点,即科学进步研究的财富不适用于哲学,也没有用,哲学根本不需要进步的概念。作者最终认为,虽然单霁翔的论点并不成功,但它们揭示了发展哲学进步的道路。
