A Study of the Transcendental Philosophy and Quantum Physics Approach toward Causality and Uncertainty with an Emphasis on Heisenberg and Boehm’s Views

One of the greatest challenges faced by physicists and philosophers, in relation to the principle of causality, is the interpretation of uncertainty relations. Thus, several views have developed on this issue, a couple of the most important and yet contradictory of which are the views of Boehm and Heisenberg. Mulla Sadra’s philosophy has, also, provided some responses in its ontological and philosophical encounter with this issue. Hence, the present study, based on these principles and the certainty of causality, intends to explain, compare and analyze some fundamentals like the improvability of causality, the distinction between real and preparing causes, the concomitance of the real cause with necessity and cognation so that some light is shed on the darker aspects of the issue. Finally, the term “incertitude” is recommended to be used as an alternative for “uncertainty” due to cognitive errors induced by homonymies and particular philosophical sensitivities.
