The paper investigates the type of realism that best suits the framework of decoherence taken at face value without postulating a plurality of worlds, or additional hidden variables, or non-unitary dynamical mechanisms. It is argued that this reading of decoherence leads to a type of perspectival realism which is extremely radical, especially when cosmological decoherence is considered.

Abstract
The paper investigates the type of realism that best suits the framework of decoherence taken at face value without postulating a plurality of worlds, or additional hidden variables, or non-unitary dynamical mechanisms. It is argued that this reading of decoherence leads to a type of perspectival realism which is extremely radical, especially when cosmological decoherence is considered.
