metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: In recent decades, Perspectivism has developed into an epistemological research program
  claiming its independence. This autonomy stems from Perspectivism’s potential ability to resolve
  the contradictions between realist and constructivist programs. Perspectivism is based
  on the idea that the object depends on perspective, which constitutes any subjective attempt
  to cognize it. Perspectivists reconstruct and explain the factors involved in the formation of
  perspective, identifying the conditionality of epistemic acts, using concepts such as “position”,
  “point of view”, “view”, “angle”, “horizon”, “focus”, “picture”, “context”, “aspect”, etc. Although
  these concepts are part of the Perspectivist’s toolkit, their meanings and interrelation have so
  far been taken for granted and have not yet been critically and comprehensively analyzed. The
  purpose of this article is to take steps toward clarifying the conceptual basis for defending
  Perspectivism as an epistemological program. Once consistently uncovered and correlated in
  a conceptual model, Perspectivist concepts can be used as a tool for a detailed analysis of theories,
  positions, and beliefs. The article begins with a preliminary description of the concept
  of Perspectivism and its brief history as an epistemological program. In particular, the first
  modern attempts to outline Perspectivist epistemology are described in the works of F. Kaulbach
  (1990), W. Stegmaier (2008), and M. Massimi (2017, 2020). The problem of identifying
  the special a priori status of Perspectivist notions as a strategy for justifying the autonomy of
  Perspectivism is then posed. A method for demonstrating such a status, based on Kant’s transcendentalism
  and P. Strawson’s descriptive metaphysics, is then suggested.
