“…The inevitabilist instinct seems deeply active in most of us in one form or another, even if depending on the individual sensibilities, different kinds of scientific targets might work as the most powerful attractors of inevitability. Several thinkers have insisted on such a situation (see, e.g., Hacking 1999, 79;Radick 2005a, 25-26, 45;Soler 2006a;Kidd (forthcoming); in the present volume, this situation is a central concern of my chapter 1, Pickering's chapter 3, and Chang's chapter 15. The suspicion or experience of an inevitabilist instinct encourages an examination of what lies behind it.…”

“…Though it seems frequently assumed that inevitabilism should be the default position, under examination this assumption is a highly questionable one. I have discussed this point elsewhere (Soler 2006a) and will briefly come back to it at the end of this chapter (94)(95).…”

“…Une première source de non-contrôle au sein du procès de généralisation réside dans le manque d'attention accordée par le chercheur à la spécificité, voire à la contingence (Soler, 2006), des objets empiriques originels supports de l'inférence inductive. Prigogine et Stengers (1992) illustrent cet écueil en sciences physiques : la physique classique a érigé en schéma général d'intelligibilité, applicable à tous les systèmes mécaniques, des résultats obtenus à partir de l'investigation originelle du mouvement des planètes.…”
