“… Here and elsewhere there seem to be interesting connections between Rorty's approach to justification and Hume's metaepistemological naturalism (on which see Gascoigne and Knowles, Skjei, and Amundsen , § 2; for a suggestion as to such a connection, see Williams ). I hope to explore this issue in future work.…”

This paper motivates and defends “Rortian realism,” a position that is Rortian in respect of its underlying philosophical theses but non‐Rortian in terms of the lessons it draws from these for cultural politics. The philosophical theses amount to what the paper calls Rorty's “anti‐representationalism” (AR), arguing that AR is robust to critique as being anti‐realist, relativist, or sceptical, invoking Rorty's historicism/ethnocentrism as part of the defence. The latter, however, creates problems for Rorty in so far as his reformative views on the nature of philosophical and academic activity are meant to be foisted on an academy that ex hypothesi holds views different from these. The paper suggests we can motivate a different conception of the consequences of AR more amenable to the academy: Rortian realism, a view that makes greater concessions to realism and a kind of scientific naturalism than Rorty would like, but that for those very reasons is more likely to allow AR to prevail.

Praca przedstawia omówienie metodologii oraz bada podstawę koncepcji, którą jest realizm krytyczny. Artykuł sugeruje, że realistyczna ewaluacja zapewnia przydatne środki do badania zdrowia oraz nauk społecznych poprzez użycie łączonych metod, oraz zawiera wnioski dotyczące tego jak badacz może rozpocząć używanie realistycznej ewaluacji w badaniach. Słowa kluczowe: realistyczna ewaluacja, realizm krytyczny, łączone metody AbSTRACT REALISTIC EvALUATION AS bOTH A SCIENCE AND AS A mETHODOLOGyThis paper examines an increasingly used methodology developed by Pawson and Tilley [1] that they termed, 'Realistic Evaluation' . The paper provides an overview of methodology as well as exploring its underpinning philosophy, that of critical realism. The paper suggests that Realistic Evaluation provides a useful means of exploring the health and social sciences through the use of mixed methods and concludes with how a researcher might go about constructing a Realist Evaluation study.
