- Nomological_determinism abstract "In philosophy, nomological determinism is the notion that the past and the present dictate the future entirely and necessarily by rigid, all-encompassing natural laws, that every occurrence results inevitably from prior events. Here are two definitions from the literature:"Nomological determinism is a contingent and empirical claim about the laws of nature: that they are deterministic rather than probabilistic, and that they are all-encompassing rather than limited in scope. "[Nomological] determinism is a claim about the laws of nature: very roughly, it is the claim that everything that happens is determined by antecedent conditions together with the natural laws." The notion of all-encompassing laws applying to everything is common to both definitions, but they differ in how specific they are about the nature of "natural laws". The notion of all-encompassing as a part of nomological determinism suggests that the issues surrounding materialism, multiple realizability, and mental causation have been resolved by including mental events among those governed by "natural laws". However, these issues still are a matter under philosophical discussion. As pointed out by Vihvelin:"If, on the other hand, some individuals or some parts of some individuals (e.g., the nonphysical minds of human beings) or some of the behaviors of some of the individuals (e.g., the free actions of human beings) do not fall under either deterministic or probabilistic laws, then the laws are not all-encompassing." Nomological determinism is a common form of causal determinism, and is sometimes taken as a synonym for physical determinism. However, other authors specifically distinguish between nomological determinism and physical determinism.Nomological determinism also has been viewed as a form of causal determinism which can be asserted with not only physical determinism, but physical indeterminism.".
