Evolutionary epistemology is a naturalistic approach to epistemology.The term was first coined by psychologist Campbell.Evolutionary epistemology regards cognition as the product of biological evolution.Based on the theory of biological evolution,it studies the origin,evolution,and evolutionary mechanism of organism’s cognitive ability.According to different evolutionary theories,different evolutionary epistemological research paths have been produced,and at the same time they have brought different theoretical values of epistemology.In this paper,the first chapter mainly discusses the adaptation socialist approach of evolutionary epistemology and EEM program and EET program to adapt to the socialist path of evolutionary epistemology research based on the adaptive method,emphasize the importance of natural selection in biological evolution brady could be divided into EEM programme and EET evolutionary epistemology,emphasizing the role of natural selection in two program last this chapter discusses the difference between popper’s theory of knowledge evolution and evolutionary epistemology,and points out that this paper is based on the research under the EEM programme.In the second chapter evolutionary epistemology is strong not adapt to the socialist road,the radical constructivism path,in this chapter we will study mainly on constructivism epistemology framework has sorted out the brief history of radical constructivism,introduces the characteristics of its focus on organism perspective and theoretical problems of this approach we can see that the emergence of the radical constructivism approach to promote the thinking of the theory of constructivism and interaction,the third chapter evolutionary epistemology not adapt to the socialist approach under the presence of the adaptation theory laid a foundation.The third chapter is weak in evolutionary epistemology of adapting to socialist approach,namely the adaptation theory mainly introduced the Ukraine to ask,about to mention the adaptive approaches to the study of the evolutionary epistemology Ukraine,through the distinction between adaptation and adaptability to the evolutionary epistemology of adaptation theory,emphasizes the organism as a positive mutual feedback system and the environment,is not independent evolution not adapt to the socialist perspective,emphasis on the core of the problem is to survive,to avoid or weaken the ontological problem,as an evolutionary epistemology argues that knowledge and is equivalent to the stage.In this paper,the fourth chapter is based on the symbiosis theory put forward by the new pluralism evolutionary epistemology approach,namely the application of evolutionary epistemology,mainly in the new theory of evolution,such as the construction of the ecological niche reticulate evolution perspective study evolution of epistemology in this chapter from the perspective of the evolution of the pluralist approach under epistemology reflection on the traditional evolutionary epistemology views,to explore the problem of the relationship between the epistemology and ontology knowledge and the world.In the fifth chapter puts forward not adapt to the socialist evolutionary epistemology theory value and the future first reflect on to adapt to the socialist path,scholars focus on diversity of evolutionary mechanism is put forward,and introduces the concept of information into the evolutionary epistemology research will be helpful to the further development of evolutionary epistemology finally,under the not adapt to the socialist perspective,emphasis on organisms adapt to the world in the enthusiasm and cancel the constancy to a certain extent the world,and from the nature of biological structure with the world,expounds the application of evolutionary epistemology perspective and its significance.
