Peirce‘s conception of causation, and a novel approach to causation, based upon the semeiotic of Peirce. .The book begins with a review of the history of causation, and with a critical discussion of contemporary theories of the concept of `cause‘. The author uncovers a number of inadequacies in the received views of causation, and discusses their historical roots. He makes a distinction between "causality", which is the relation between cause and effect, and causation, which is the production of a certain effect. He argues that, by focusing on causality, the contemporary theories fatally neglect the more fundamental problem of causation. The author successively discusses Peirce‘s theories of final causation, natural classes, semeiotic, and semeiotic causation. Finally, he uses Peirce‘s semeiotic to develop a new approach to causation, which relates causation to our experience of signs. | 出版日期 | Book 2002 | 关键词 | argue; bibliography; causality; concept; critical analysis; experience; history; history of literature; know | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-010-0297-4 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4020-0977-8 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-010-0297-4Series ISSN 0921-8599 Series E-ISSN 2542-8349 | issn_series | 0921-8599 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2002 |
