This text presents a critical analysis of the concept of causality and the problematic relationship between cause and effect. Starting from the premise that a cause temporally precedes its effect, the author raises several ontological and epistemological questions. The inquiry examines the nature of a past cause and the potential transformation of cause into effect, highlighting the difficulty of identifying a cause in its own right. If the effect has not yet occurred, the entity cannot be recognized as a cause; once the effect manifests, the cause belongs to the past. Consequently, causality is viewed not as a direct experience but as a comparison of non-simultaneous states within a conceptual framework. Given the complexity of these relations and the multiplicity of causes and effects, the author suggests moving beyond traditional causal schemes. Instead, a new perspective focused on time and process is proposed, introducing the event as a primary intentional and conceptual model. This paradigm shift aims to better reflect the dynamic nature of reality, which linear causality fails to fully capture.
