Speculative Realism is a current in contemporary philosophy that emerged in the early 21st century. It shares a position that criticizes the premise of modern philosophy (correlationism) that human “thought” and “being” are inseparable, and attempts to reconsider “reality” itself, which exists objectively whether or not humans perceive it. Main arguments and characteristics: Criticism of correlationism: Philosophy since modernity has been preoccupied with “how humans perceive the world.” In response, it attempts to speculate about “the history of the universe before humans existed” and “independent things.” Object-oriented ontology (OOO): An approach proposed by Graham Harman and others that considers all nonhuman things (objects, animals, concepts, technologies, etc.), as well as humans, to have their own existence on an equal footing with humans. This current was decisively influenced by Quentin Meillassoux's book “After Finitude” and brought about a major paradigm shift, particularly in continental philosophy.

思弁的実在論(Speculative Realism)は、21世紀初頭に台頭した現代哲学の潮流です。人間の「思考」と「存在」は切り離せないとする近代哲学の前提(相関主義)を批判し、人間が認識していようといながらも客観的に存在する「実在」そのものを捉え直そうとする立場を共有しています。主要な論点と特徴相関主義の批判: 近代以降の哲学は、「人間が世界をどう認識するか」に囚われてきました。これに対し、「人間が存在する以前の宇宙の歴史」や「独立した事物」について思索(スペキュレーション)することを試みます。オブジェクト指向存在論(OOO): グレアム・ハーマンらが提唱する、人間だけでなく、すべての非人間的な事物(モノ、動物、概念、技術など)も人間と同等に固有の存在を持つと考えるアプローチです。この潮流は、カンタン・メイヤスーの著書『有限性の後で』から決定的な影響を受け、大陸哲学を中心に大きなパラダイムシフトをもたらしました。
