[FRIAM] Emergence and Downward Causation

Wed Nov 4 12:56:52 EST 2020

I mean... that Aristotle's 4 "causes" are all counted as "causes" is
clearly arbitrary right?!? (At this point in the conversation.) The insight
Aristotle is bringing to the table is that when someone points at something
and asks "*Why?"*, we can answer that in multiple sensible ways. That
English uses the same word for what are (at least) 4 conceptually distinct
things, is a different issue altogether. If we agree there are 4
distinguishable concepts there, we can call them "Cause1", "Cause2" or
"Material *Cause*", "Efficient *Cause*", etc., or we *could *call them by
much more distinct names if we wanted to.

Translating into other languages creates huge headaches in exactly these
situations. How would you talk about the "4 causes" if you have a language
in which there are four distinct words, each of which is clearly
referring to a different kind of thing, and there was no omnibus term that
lumped them together? Or what if there was a language that an omnibus word,
but it was even wider, and included 6 distinct concepts?

Even in English, because the language is so bloody flexible, it would be
relatively trivial to remove the word "cause" entirely and just ask things
like:

   - "What is it made of?" (requesting a "material cause" answer)
   - "What will it be when it is done?" (requesting a "formal cause"
   answer)
   - "What process made it that way?" (requesting an "efficient cause"
   answer)
   - "Why was it done?" (requesting a "final cause" answer)

And, of course, we could use Tinbergen's 4 "whys" as easily as Aristotles,
or anyone else's suggested categories.

Whenever we say more simply "What caused X?" we open ourselves up to being
given an answer in any of those terms. The issue of whether
constituent parts "cause" the whole is just such a confusion. The issue of
whether some "higher" level of organization can "cause" things at a lower
level is also such a confusion. That the U.S. was at war with Vietnam in
1974 was surely a cause of many things that happened in Vietnam during that
year, by *some* reasonable meaning of the word cause. Once that's out of
the way, the only question is whether that's the meaning of the word
"cause" that we were interested in, and whether that meaning works for some
specific happening of interest.

Similarly: Do you remember at some point learning that "There are 8 types
of love, affectionate love, romantic love, playful love, etc."?  What we
probably should have been taught was something like "The ancient Greeks had
distinct concepts, marked by unrelated words, for 8 things that we
awkwardly try to lump under one word. Using just one word for all those
things creates a lot of really awful confusions for English speakers.
English is dumb, and we should create words to stop those confusions."
Instead the messaging was more like "Oh, isn't it interesting that there
are so many different *kinds of love*!" as if the basic category was
somehow unchallengeable.

(I fully recognize that those who know Greek, or more intimately know
Aristotle may find fault in my summary above, but I'm pretty confident the
thrust of the overall argument stands)
