Week 8 Discussion post
This week we will finish the methological investigations (Chapter 3 of Woodward’s book). There are a lot of interesting points made by Woodward, which challenge many deeply-held assumptions by philosophers. I hope you enjoy your reading.
In your discussions, please address the following questions:
Can the philosopher’s intuitions about causation illustrate the nature of causation? Why or why not?
What is experimental philosophy (X-Phi) on the study of causation? What can it contribute to our understanding of causation? How is it different from armchair philosophy and empirical research on causation (ERC)?
- (Optional) How important is the concept of causation in our causal cognition? Do we have to characterize the concept of causation before we can understand causal judgment or perform causal learning?
- You need to post first and then respond to at least one other student’s post. All are due by Saturday night.
