In this paper we will proceed in the following way: firstly we will give a brief reminder of the main tenets of the philosophical program connected to strong probabilistic causation; then we will recall some of the principal problems that the mathematization of probability-based causal theories have tried to solve in the last two decades (with a certain degree of success, which explains the two different incipit quoted above). Eventually we will discuss the connection between kinds of probabilities and kinds of probabilistic causations, an issue that has a strong impact on the problem of determinism.
