Einstein Locality

In 1935 Albert Einstein, in collaboration with Boris Podolsky and Nathan Rosen, published a landmark paper entitled “Can quantum mechanical description of physical reality be considered complete?” [1] Einstein had already been engaged for several years in a discussion with Niels Bohr about the completeness of quantum theory. In the1935 paper Einstein did not challenge the claim of the quantum theorists that their theory was complete in the pragmatic/epistemological sense that it gives all possible empirically testable predictions about connections between the various aspects of “our knowledge.” In the 1935 paper Einstein et. al. effectively accepted this claim of epistemological completeness, but defined the question they were addressing to be the completeness of quantum mechanics as a description of physical reality.
