| Relations, philosophy: relations are that what can be discovered or produced in objects or states when compared to other objects or other states with regard to a selected property. For example, dimensional differences between objects A and B, which are placed into a linguistic order with the expression "larger" or "smaller" as a link, are determinations of relations which exist between the objects. Identity or equality is not accepted as a relation by most authors. See also space, time, order, categories, reflexivity, symmetry, transitivity._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.

David Hume on Relations - Dictionary of Arguments
I 121/122 Relation/KantVsHume: relations are not external to ideas. HumeVsKant: each relation is external in their terms, e.g. equality is not a property of the figures themselves, e.g. neighboring and distant figures do not explain what neighborhood and distance is. Relation anticipates a synthesis. Space/time: space and time are in the mind only a composition, bearing relation through fiction. E.g. association: creates relation, but does not explain that distance is a relation. Cf. >Properties/Chisholm. >Association/Hume, >Mind/Hume. I 135 Relations/Hume: relations cannot be derived from experience, they are effects of association principles external to the things (atomism). KantVsHume: not externally. Kant: therefore, critical philosophy instead of empiricism. >KantVsHume. I 139 KantVsHume: relations are so far dependent on the nature of things, as things presuppose a synthesis as phenomena that result from the same source as the synthesis of relations. Therefore, the critical philosophy is not empiricism. There is an a priori, that means, the imagination is productive. >Imagination/Hume, >Imagination/Kant. I 145 Causality/Hume: causality is the only relation, from which something can be concluded._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
