Chapter 6 in On Keynes’s Method, 1988, pp 89-110 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract As we will see in this chapter, the peculiar feature of Keynes’s position was that he shifted the focus of the analysis of the problem of cause and chance from the field of explanation by material and physical connection to the field of the study of the effective processes of knowing and believing associated with the use of the concepts of cause and chance. The similarity of this approach to that of probability is obvious.
