On the Unavoidability of the Interpretations of Quantum Mechanics

History and Philosophy of Physics 2013-09-27 v2

Abstract

Recently, the presence in the literature (also recent) of voluminous discussions about the interpretation of quantum mechanics has been labelled as scandalous. We claim that a weak point of the debate which hosted such a conclusion is a lack of a definition of the term "interpretation". In the present note, we would "like to make precise" that meaning and to show how such a clarification is necessary in order to avoid misunderstandings.
