%0 Journal Article %T The Debate between Causal Realism and Causal Constructivism: Metaphilosophical Reflections %A Erik Weber %J Philosophica %D 2008 %I Ghent University %X In this paper I discuss, from a metaphilosophical point of view, the debate between causal realism and causal constructivism. First, I argue that the debate, if it is couched in the general terms as it is traditionally done, rests on a false dilemma. Then I argue that the debate must be disentangled into several more specific debates in order to be interesting. %U http://logica.ugent.be/philosophica/fulltexts/81-4.pdf
