Event Supervenience and Supervenient Causation
Southern Journal of Philosophy 22 (S1):71-91 (1984)
Abstract
In this paper, I examine, from a metaphysical point of view, a recent notable attempt by Jaegwon Kim to explain how macro-events are dependent on micro-events and how causal transactions between macro-events are dependent on causal transactions between micro-events.Author's Profile
