Journal Article 2022 01 19 Complementarity is the central component of the so-called Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics, which Niels Bohr first presented at the Como and Solvay Conferences in 1927. The content of Bohr's speech was published in an article entitled "the quantum postulate and recent development of Atomic Theory" in 1928. The purpose of this study is to formulate Bohr's philosophical approaches by content analysis of his paper (1928) related to complementarity. The research method is based on the conceptual analysis of the content and text of this paper (1928) from which conceptual inferences can be deduced, and based on them, philosophical approaches are tried to be formulated. Finally, the four philosophical approaches including Unificationism, empiricism (positivistic and metaphysical), anti-causality and indeterministic, as well as anti-realism can be formulated. In addition, for more accurate inferences, we need to refer to the following works of Bohr, or in other words, "Bohr from Bohr's point of view".
