Abstract
if we accept experimental results(1–3) as evidence of violations of Bell’s inequalities(1,4) we either have to abandon realism or introduce some faster-than-light (FTL) interaction.* This is indeed quite an amazing result, one which deserves thorough theoretical and experimental investigation. My approach is a first attempt in this direction. As I intend to show, nonlocal realism, just like local realism, can be investigated experimentally.
