A theoretical framework proposing that the laws of physics appear differently from different perspectives—that what counts as a "law" depends on the observer's situation, scale, and conceptual framework. Drawing on insights from relativity (where simultaneity is frame-dependent) and quantum mechanics (where measurement context matters), this theory extends perspectivism to all physical law. The perspectivism of physical laws suggests that no single formulation captures the whole truth—laws are inherently perspectival, their form determined by the relationship between observer and observed. This doesn't mean laws are arbitrary or subjective; it means they're relational, describing not reality-in-itself but reality-as-experienced-from-a-particular-vantage. Understanding perspectivism might reveal that apparent contradictions between laws (quantum vs. classical, relativity vs. quantum) arise from taking a single perspective as absolute rather than recognizing the validity of multiple perspectives.
