 This criticism sparked an interesting debate in the Mexican journal Critica during the 1990s. Dorothy Edgington (1990) accepted Flichman’s criticism as an argument against the possibility of analyzing the concept of causation. Horacio Abeledo (1995), in turn, showed that there would be a “formal” way out of Flichman’s criticism, but with no philosophical support. From an opposite perspective, Helen Beebee (1997) explicitly responded to Flichman’s argument and to Abeledo’s conclusion by arguing that the putative counter-example presented by Flichman is not in fact a counter-example after all. Both Flichman and Abeledo reacted to Beebee’s paper. On the basis of a refutation of Beebee’s argument, Flichman (2000) elaborated on his criticism of Lewis’s theory and his defense of an acausal position. Finally, Abeledo (2000) offered a clear and detailed summary of the whole controversy, adding new arguments against Beebee’s view but stressing his disagreements with Flichman’s position.
