Abstract: The paper has as goal to revisit the general concept of causality, with some specifications to the social (especially economic) field. The logical conditions of causality (individual causes as well multiple causes) are proposed and evaluated. Based on causality concept, the correlation notion is introduced and formalized, in order to classify as general as possible the real interactions among things.
