Causal Dispositionalism and Emptiness in Huayan Buddhism. Nicholaos Jones (The University of Alabama in Huntsville) 5:30 pm
Causal Dispositionalism and Emptiness in Huayan Buddhism. Nicholaos Jones (The University of Alabama in Huntsville) @ Philosophy Hall 716
Sep 13 @ 5:30 pm – 7:30 pm
Tickets
I relate an approach to causation from Huayan Buddhism to an emerging research program from analytic metaphysics. The research program is Causal Dispositionalism.

Causal Dispositionalism competes with Neo-Humeanism, a research program that conceptualizes causation as a relation among powerless, causally inert properties. Some scholars claim that approaches to causation from the Madhyamaka Buddhist tradition cohere with Neo-Humeanism. Some also claim that Huayan[...]

Zoom link This talk examines the instruments suggested by the key policy document driving sustainable finance in the European Union, the Action Plan on Financing Sustainable Growth. It uses a reflexive law approach coupled with insights from epistemology.
