The second part of: An Introduction to Critical Realism, recorded during a live session at the Institute for Education, hosted by Gary Hawke of Alethic Coaching, and led by Professor Roy Bhaskar.

In the second part Professor Bhaskar continues his presentation on Basic Critical Realism by exploring the possibility of naturalism expressed in critical naturalism. In particular, critical naturalism seeks to resolve the dualisms prevalent in social science, namely, structure and agency, collectivism and individualism, reification and voluntarism, causes and reason, body and mind, facts and values.

Professor Bhaskar concludes by offering an inquiry into applied critical realism (ACR) is not so much a theoretical movement as much as it is the ongoing practical investigations and interventions of critical realism in concrete fields.

Thank you Gary. Reading The order of Natural Necessity again and am ever so grateful for it. You did a marvellous job. I wish I had met Roy, a greatly under celebrated genius. He’s left the answers all there for us, the task is getting people to understand in layman’s terms. Roy didn’t spoon feed us but he gave us everything to nurture ourselves and our planet and beyond.
