The doctrine of linear causality, which holds that the state of a system at one moment determines its states at all subsequent times, and its roots lie in the idea that everything can be explained, at least in principle (termed universal determinism). While they are in some sense deterministic, non-linear dynamical systems do not show such long-range predictability. This is because their initial conditions do not dictate their subsequent behaviour in the same way. Chaos is a form of non-linear determination without predictability. <\/p>\n
