Abstract

The aim of science is a controversial debate among realists and their opponents. Realists take the aim of science as giving a true explanation of the world. There are some answers to the question why we should take Truth as the cognitive aim of scientific activity. This paper aims to reconstruct a Kantian answer for this debate. It will be showed that Kant's thought regarding Truth create a capacity to accept Truth as a regulative idea and a moral duty, though we have deprived of any criteria of Truth. Moreover, we can modify kant's idea by setting aside justificationism in epistemology, in order not to take Truth as an "arbitrary decision".
