HJUMOVO SHVATANJE KAUZALNOG OBJAŠNJENJA
HUME’S UNDERSTANDING OF CAUSAL EXPLANATION

Summary/Abstract: This article deals with actuality of Hume’s positive thesis about causality, specifically in modern science. According to Dauer, Hume in his Treatise of Human Nature does not deal with scientific theory which allows us, in modern times, to come to the truth, and then necessity. Also, he claims that observation alone, without theory is useless, which is the reason why we need science to predict future events. I intend to show that all three claims are incorrect, and to show an intimate connection of causality and our intuitions.
