Pluralistic Theories of Causation
|
|
Main Claims Counterexamples: There are counterexamples to all extant univocal analyses of causation. Disagreement: Individuals often disagree in their intuitive judgments about what causes what. Vagueness: Causation is a vague concept. Borderline cases. Degrees of Typicality: Some instances of causation more representative/typical than others. Our concept of causation has a prototype structure. Polysemy: Causation is a polysemous concept: there is a plurality of related senses of causation. Best explanation of 1-5: Causation is a cluster concept. No univocal analysis of causation (that respects our intuitions) is possible. If one hopes to develop a precise, univocal analysis of causation in physics or biology, that analysis will have to be revisionary.
