倾向和因果的关系问题延绵了上千年,在当今哲学界依然是一个热门话题。倾向和因果的关联问题在学界争议很大,探索二者之间的还原方式及倾向的因果力的实现路径有助于人们深入了解这两个重要哲学概念。剖析不同学者的观点并指出其不足之处有助于厘清倾向和因果之间的关联,还能呈现倾向主义者和范畴主义者之间的分歧。倾向的不同可以区分潜力究竟是威胁还是希望,研究因果有利于澄清事件发生的原因或导致的结果。这些都将在一定程度上促进人类对因果律的利用,最终服务于科研和生活等。

The correlation between disposition and causality has remained a question for thousands of years,and is still a hot topic in today's philosophy circle.There has been great controversy regarding the relationship between disposition and causality in the academic field.Exploring the way of reduction between them and the realization path of the causal power of disposition will help people to deeply understand these two important philosophical concepts.Analyzing the viewpoints of different scholars and pointing out their shortcomings can help to clarify the relationship between disposition and causality,and also show the divergences between dispositionalists and categorists.The difference in disposition can distinguish whether the potential is a threat or a hope,and research on causality is conducive to clarifying the causes and results of an event.All these will promote the use of causal law and effect to a certain extent,and ultimately serve scientific research and life.
