In this module, students will explore contemporary issues in metaphysics, with a view to developing their own ideas about the nature and purpose of metaphysics. Metaphysics presents itself as the study of the fundamental nature of the world. It promises to provide a guide to reality at its most objective and deepest. Yet debate over particular topics in metaphysics often involves quite different appeals to science, experience, intuition and explanation. In this module, we’ll examine metaphysical debates about scientific modalities (law, causation, chance), consider what standards are driving these debates, and in what sense these debates are substantive.
