Abstract:

The ArgumentEinstein's concept of causality as analyzed in this paper is a thick concept comprised of: (a) regularity; (b) locality; (c) symmetry considerations leading to conservation laws; (d) mutuality of causal interaction. The main theses are: 1. Since (b)–(d) are not elements of Hume's concept of causality, Einstein's concept, the concept embedded in the theory of relativity, is manifestly non–Humean. 2. On a Humean conception, Newtonian mechanics is a paradigmatically causal theory. Einstein, however, regarded this theory as causally deficient, for it fails to comply with both (b) and (d). Special relativity was (partly) motivated by the wish to correct the first of these failures; general relativity the second. 3. Ironically, general relativity, based on the thick concept of causality, opens the way for a conventionalist understanding of that concept. 4. With regard to human freedom, Einstein professed to be a Spinozist. However, he suggested a version of soft determinism, not found in Spinoza.

Abstract:

This research tries to present a critical analysis of the concept of scientific causality and the problems it entails within the scientific domain. This study claims that scientific causality is not enough to understand the nature of relationships existing among the members of a chain and it is concerned with the possible action of correspondence apart from the context of action. It is argued here that all types of scientific causality fail to reflect the flexible nature of members of any possible correlation. This paper offers the concept "contextual causality" as a possible alternative perspective that reflects both the variable and elastic nature of the elements of correlation and discusses the relationship between the context and the process of correlation. The introduction of the concept of contextual causality raises new metaphysical and epistemological issues that can be solved from the perspective of structural idealism.  Keyword: Causality, Contextualism, Structuralism, Structural Idealism, Linear Causality, Epistemology.

Abstract:

From the dawn of philosophy, with pre-Socratic thinkers, to the present day, the concept of causality continues to captivate and divide philosophers in all areas. On the one hand, as it is a fundamental concept for understanding the World and its dynamism, the notion of causality remains attractive. On the other hand, it is a source of discord, since it can be understood and thought of in different ways, which leads to contradictory visions about reality. In face of these two stances, the contemporary philosophical debate about the nature of causality is fragmented into a large number of positions, each of which implies a different worldview. In this context, this issue of Revista Portuguesa de Filosofia (RPF) intends to contribute to the philosophical reflection on the challenges posed by the different perspectives on causality and corresponding problematics.

Abstract:

The article discusses some philosophical and methodological topical aspects of the principles of determinism and causality in theoretical and clinical medicine. The problem of determinism is of great methodological importance in the doctrine of etiology and pathogenesis. The article substantiates the idea that the categories “determinism” and “causality” are not identical in their content, since in terms of logical volume, determinism is a broader concept than causality. The article analyzes the evolution of ontological and gnoseological concepts of understanding the problem of determinism and causality in medicine, in particular, some topical issues of therapy, diagnosis and prevention of diseases in the context of this problem. Causal relationships are considered as a specific type of deterministic relationships, and any condition and factor as a specific determinant. The article pays special attention to the meaningful analysis of such concepts as “factorial etymology”, “causal etiology” and also provides a comparative analysis of these concepts. Gneseologically one of the most difficult debatable and underexplored problems of the theory of determinism is the concept of polyetiology, mono-etiology in the context of casual relations.
