It is his contributing chapter in Metatheory for the 21st Century.
Bhaskar's distinction between dualistic
demi-reality and realistic duality reminds me quite a bit of the
real/false reason distinction in that IPS thread. The exploration of
which is indeed a metatheoretical endeavor.
Also of note in the article is how Bhaskar's tripartite description of absolute/relative relations is better than
Wilber's bipartite model. Metatheoretical social science would work
through Bhaskar's middle layer of realistic duality to achieve
emancipations, whereas Wilber's bipartite descriptions only sees how the
relative is illusion and hence misses out on effective, relative
practices of emancipation (92), instead focusing on individual, internal
consciousness practices (94).
