In Defense of the New Hume: A Response to Zuzana Parusniková

James Hill

Abstract


This article recommends the sceptical realist, or New Hume, interpretation of Hume's theory of causation, in spite of Zuzana Parusniková's critique. However, the author, in line with his developmental interpretation, defends the New Hume only for the Scottish philoso- pher's mature philosophy.
