Abstract:Social Construction with its radical attitudes has posed challenges to the philosophy of science to use social realism to replace natural realism. These challenges are mainly reflected in three aspects:to replace reasonableness with symmetry,logic with context,and realism with constructionism. Such challenge has opened a broad social and cultural analytic context for scientific knowledge and,is of great theoretical and practical significance. However,this was done at the expense of the natural basis on which science is built. The solution to this dilemma lies in scientific practice.
Key words:social constructionism;scientific philosophy;scientific practice
