Esfeld has recently argued that ontic structural realism may succeed only if it is based on causal structures. In order to meet this requirement, he offers a combination of dispositional/causal relations with moderate form of ontic structural realism. This paper, however, demonstrates that moderate position, in relation to causation, faces a dilemma whose resolution leads to a monistic ontology that creates a rather hostile environment for structural metaphysics.}, url = {http://www.klemens.sav.sk/fiusav/doc/organon/2010/4/508-521.pdf}, author = {Schmidt, Martin} }
