摘要
Scientists often find themselves in disagreement with their peers, yet continue to hold fast to their views. While Conciliationism, a prominent position in the epistemology of disagreement, condemns such steadfastness as epistemically irrational, philosophers of science often defend it as rationally permissible-indeed, even beneficial for scientific progress. This tension gives rise to what we call the puzzle of scientific disagreement.
