ARMSTRONG'S THEORY OF LA WS AND CAU SATION: PUTTING THINGS INTO THEIR PROPER PLA CES.

Armstrong's theory of laws and causation may be articulated as something like the following, which we may refer to as the received view: “Laws are intrinsic higher-order relations of ensuring (necessitation) between properties. The instantiation of laws is identical with singular causation. This ide...

        Armstrong's theory of laws and causation may be articulated as something like the following, which we may refer to as the received view: “Laws are intrinsic higher-order relations of ensuring (necessitation) between properties. The instantiation of laws is identical with singular causation. This identity is a posteriori." Opponents and advocates of this view, believe that it may fairly and correctly be attributed to Armstrong. I do not deny it; instead I seek to reconsider the received view, specifically by treating it as a part of Armstrong's metaphysics. The main features that should concern us are truthmaker theory and the formal account of the constitutive parts of states of affairs. I also discuss Bird's ultimate argument against Armstrong and show how its impact is weakened by this proper reading.
        Dėsnio ir priežastinio sąryšio standartinės sampratos gynėjai ir oponentai sutaria, kad šią sampratą teisinga yra priskirti Davidui M. Armstrongui. Iš esmės pritardamas įprastam požiūriui, šiame straipsnyje siūlau naujai pažvelgti į Armstrongo dėsnio ir priežastingumo teoriją traktuojant ją kaip Armstrongo metafizikos dalį. Labiausiai mums turėtų rūpėti verifikatorių teorija ir formalus dalykų padėtį sudarančių elementų aiškinimas. Taip kontekstualizuodamas standartinį požiūrį - matydamas jį kaip neatsiejamą nuo Armstrongo metafizikos kaip visumos, aš naujai interpretuoju jo dėsnio ir priežastingumo teoriją. Aš teigiu, kad tokia prieiga būtina norint neklaidžioti klystkeliais ir adekvačiai suprasti standartinį požiūrį. Straipsnio pabaigoje parodau, kaip būtent tokios prieigos taikymas saugo Armstrongo teoriją nuo lemtingojo A. Birdo kontrargumento.
