# Transcendental Emergentism
The metaphysical conviction that
history consists of various emergences and their vectors, and that no
metalaws exist outside the specific emergence vectors besides "the law"
of existence's fundamental [[Contingency]], that is: there only exists one
metalaw and it is the law stating that no metalaw exists. The fact that
everything seems to influence everything else in our actual universe is
thereby only a contingent event. Existence's [[Neutral Monism]] is in
itself no predetermined metalaw. In the same way that no emergence
vector can or must be prioritized above another, other than as an
expression of anthropocentric arbitrariness. The transcendental in
transcendental emergentism thus consists both of the irreducibility of
the various emergence vectors *vis-à-vis* each other and the
irreducibility of potential future emergences *vis-à-vis* today's actual
theory. See further [[Emergence Vector Theory]] and [[Paradigmatics]].
