Different types of causation

This is the home of all topics from the old forum. ontic-philosophy.com was the original incarnation of this site back in 2017/18 which was ran on a myBB platform. A Tree Stump (formely Ontical) saved a backup of the site before taking it down. In 2025 the forum was ressurected into a Buddypress/phpBB site on indieagora.com and then into this new Atrium custom build platform on indieagora.com. Feel free to add to the discussions and to ressurect old posts. You can also add new topics if you like.

Different types of causation

Post by atreestump »

Generally, we explain phenomena as being a 'cause and effect' system where correlations imply causation.

What other alternatives are there to this model?

Here are a few I have been exploring recently:

[list]
[*]Constraint and limitation
[*]Response
[*]Reaction
[*]Emergence
[/list]
Are you aware of any others?
