Resumo
Este artículo explora la presencia de relaciones de fundamentación (grounding) dentro del marco disposicional de la causación. En particular, se examina la relación que se establece entre una causa y las disposiciones cuyas manifestaciones dan lugar a un proceso causal (Mumford & Anjum, 2011). Para determinar si esta es una relación de fundamentación, se evalúan dos criterios clave: (i) la satisfacción de las características estándar que suelen atribuirse a la fundamentación —irreflexividad, asimetría y transitividad—, y (ii) el cumplimiento del criterio negativo según el cual las relaciones de fundamentación no son ni relaciones de identidad ni relaciones causales.
