Answer to Question #111711 in History for Mahitosh Gopal

Question

Mention two important problems of causation in history ?

Answer 1

Causation in history refers to the idea that every historical development was initiated by developments that came before. Philosophers suggest that causation is a principle that holds of objects when in reality, all events are loose and separate. Also, the constructive theory of causation supposes that there is causal connection in the world, when in reality, there is really nothing more than customary association in our minds.
