		Such complex causation and sometimes unintended consequences should be kept in mind before we resort to simple normative shibboleths about the obstructionism of law or the natural and inevitable evolution from laissez-faire to the general-welfare state.
		The number of lawyers in the United States grew from an estimated 39,000 in 1870 to 161,000 by 1930; and as one might expect, the number of degree-granting law schools with a three-year course of study grew from seven schools in 1890 to over 170 in 1931 (Clark and Douglas: 1481, 1486-87).
		He upheld state legislation that prohibited certain businesses as detrimental to the public interest, that prescribed standards of fitness for lawyers and doctors, and that required railroads to erect cattle guards and grade crossings at their own expense.

		Though life is subject to the law of conservation of energy, nothing characteristic of life can be deduced from such a law.
		This distinction between elements and their combination enabled him to unite the belief in the universality of physical causation which is the scientist’s protection against the refined superstitions of teleology with the Aristotelian belief in accidents which keeps the scientist from erecting his discoveries into metaphysical dogmas.
		Wright’s own choice, which he does not pretend to demonstrate, is for the view attributed to Aristotle, that creation is not a progression toward a single end, but rather an endless succession of changes, simple and constant in their elements, though infinite in their combinations, which constitute an order without beginning and without termination.

	Supreme Court - What is wrong with top-down legal reasoning?: Lawlink NSW
		It is well settled that the interpretation of a constitution such as ours is necessarily influenced by the fact that its provisions are framed in the language of the English common law, and are to be read in the light of the common law's history.
		In March v E and MH Stramare Pty Ltd,[59] Mason CJ said that the "but for" test, applied as an exclusive criterion of causation, "yields unacceptable results and...

	thomas henry huxley ... at MSN Shopping
		Huxley replies that he takes very seriously a host of mental phenomena that do not, strictly speaking, fall within these narrow physical limits: the universal law of causation, or the esthetic pleasure of the arts, or the truths of mathematics, for example.
		Because Huxley's contribution to developmental morphology continues to be crucial in studying problems in comparative anatomy, embryology, paleontology, and evolution, this book is essential to students of Darwin, Huxley, and the scientific enterprise.
		Written toward the end of Huxley's career when he was already famous as a persuasive lecturer and a fascinating expositor of new ideas, these essays demonstrate his rhetorical gifts and talent for explaining the importance of science to a lay audience.

		The extension of suffrage in the United States and Canada, as well as its relationships to the respective movements for the establishment of tax-supported primary schools, help establish a path of causation from a change in the extent of one form of inequality to a change in the extent of another.
		By 1815, only four states had adopted universal white male suffrage, but as the movement to do away with political inequality gained strength, they were joined by the rest of the country as virtually all new entrants to the Union extended voting privileges to all white men, and older states revised their laws.
		In early nineteenth-century Canada schools were also common, and even though this northern-most English colony lagged behind the United States by several decades in establishing tax-supported primary schools with universal access, its literacy rates were nearly as high.

	Cromohs 1999 - Francesconi - William Robertson on Historical Causation and Unintended Consequences
		Robertson was here implicitly comparing the successful attempt to abolish the feudal servitude carried out by the English kings, with the resilience of baronial power in the Scottish constitution.
		This is a case in point of Robertson’s approach to historical causation.
		The Moderates promoted an alliance between the clergy, the nobility and the gentry to promote the enforcement of the new patronage law, which according to Robertson would result in the selection of a superior type of minister.

	Kevin's English law glossary: Assault occasioning actual bodily harm (OAPA 1861 s.47)
		The mens rea for this offence is the same as that for common-law assault; there need not be a separate mens rea for the ABH (as decided in R v Savage; R v Parmenter (1992) (see R v Savage; R v Parmenter (1992)).
		In addition, there must be clear causation of the harm by the assault.
		This offence requires proof of assault and/or battery, so the elements of common-law assault and/or battery must be present to prove this offense.
