Abstract

The concept of causality is fundamental to our understanding of the world. the idea of causality was made popular, in Western Philosophy, by David Hume; one of the best-know British empiricists. This paper examines critically the Human idea of causality-that of a necessary/physical connection - in juxtaposition to an Africa theory. The thesis that the causal relation, when correctly defined, is as directly observable as many other facts and that the alleged of Humean denial of a causal tie is a myth.
