Abstract

Abstract: Research of Kants philosophy of science is a heated issue in the international academic circles. In terms of the legality and status， the latest research of the history of philosophy of science has resurrected Kants natural philosophy and given it a legal status as philosophy of science， making it an important research field of philosophy of science. In terms of the academic horizons， research of Kants philosophy of science focuses on the eternal research themes of philosophy of science such as the relationship between science and metaphysics and the more profound problems in methodology. In terms of the contemporary value， Kants philosophy of science may provide a new theoretical perspective for scientific realism that the contemporary scholars have been discussing. Furthermore， it provides a feasible approach to getting out of the dilemma of relativism in research of philosophy of science initiated by Kuhn and Quine. More importantly， Kants philosophy of science can provide new understanding and research space to philosophy of science itself.

Key words: Immanuel Kant, science, philosophy, realism, relativity
