Theory of Legit Anti-Realism

A framework arguing for the legitimacy of anti-realist approaches in specific domains—particularly in understanding social constructions, cultural phenomena, and the limits of human knowledge. Legit anti-realism holds that many things we take as real (nations, money, laws, social roles) are real only because we agree they are—they have no existence independent of human belief and practice. Acknowledging this isn't denying reality; it's understanding different kinds of reality. The theory also legitimizes anti-realism about domains where human knowledge is inherently limited (the noumenal realm, the nature of consciousness, the foundations of physics)—not as an excuse for skepticism, but as honest acknowledgment of where our tools hit their limits. Legit anti-realism is anti-realism as epistemic humility rather than nihilism—the recognition that some questions may exceed our capacity to answer, without abandoning the questions or the attempt.
Theory of Legit Anti-Realism Example: "When she said money is 'just a social construct,' she wasn't denying its power—she was using Legit Anti-Realism to understand that its reality depends on collective belief, which means belief can also unmake it."
