Resumen

Algunos hechos fundamentan generando: fundamentan provocando otros hechos o fundamentando conexiones entre ellos. Intuitivamente, otros hechos desempeñan un papel similar a las condiciones de fondo en el caso causal: fundamentan al permitir la obtención de hechos fundamentados o conexiones generativas entre ellos. Así como podemos preguntarnos si las condiciones causales de fondo son irreductibles a las causas, podemos preguntarnos si los habilitadores son irreductibles a los generadores. Algunos metafísicos defienden una distinción metafísica genuina entre generadores y habilitadores. Sin embargo, consideraciones de parsimonia y unidad ideológicas deberían impulsarnos a defender una explicación unificada del terreno. Aquí identifico y analizo algunas características extraídas de la literatura que se dice que poseen únicamente los facilitadores. Contrariamente a esta afirmación, sostengo que los generadores pueden poseer las mismas características. Concluyo que tales características no deben considerarse como una guía para la irreductibilidad de la habilitación a la generación.
