E-LOGOS, 2018, vol. 2018, issue 2, 22-47

Abstract: Jaegwon Kim's views on mental causation and the exclusion argument are evaluated systematically. Particular attention is paid to different theories of causation. It is argued that the exclusion argument and its premises do not cohere well with any systematic view of causation.
