Andrea Mazzola (Author)
In this text we propose to retrace one of the adventures of contemporary scientific and philosophical ideas: the research project on the foundations of quantum mechanics and on the philosophy of nature, conducted by the School of Lisbon. developing the ontological compromise on the complexity of the quantistic entities, the formule du guidage and the realist position with respect to the existence of a sub-quantistic physical means, as proposed by the nobel prize physicist Luis de Broglie, and criticizing the prevalence of reductionism, strumentalism, and epistemological subjectivism, the School of Lisbon affirms that the present enthusiasm, both in the physics of the elementary particles and in the cosmology, could prove to be a myth; and there could instead appear to be conceptually consistent the reasons presented to sustain the frailty of the Big Bang hypothesis. With the reconstruction of the historical-philosophical context that led to the affirmation of the orthodox quantum mechanics, and insisting on the notion of non-linearity, the quantistic indeterminism comes to be interpreted in an ontological key as due to an incipient free-will, and to a natural finalism, bottom up, which would explain the tendency towards the increase of the natural complexity: the classical mechanistic atomism is abandoned in favor of an organicist vision.
