The notion that nature is subject to laws is exciting from many different viewpoints. This paper is based on the context of modern cosmology. It will list the significant interdisciplinary implications generated by various aspects of the contemporary scientific discussion about the status of laws of nature, especially their dynamic nature. Recent work highlights how multiple aspects of the observed universe still lack explanation and that several problems of standard cosmology still form the object of debate. Considering these issues, several proposals have been made that entail a revision of the concept of the law of nature, according to which the nature of time and of the relation between causality and natural laws ought to be reconsidered using approaches or viewpoints which point to philosophical issues. We argue that Tim Maudlin’s concept of Fundamental Law of Temporal Evolution (FLOTE) and Nancy Cartwright’s notion of the nomological machine provide new insights and valuable tools that can be used in the analysis of the status of laws in the context of cosmology and of complex systems theory. The limits of the traditional approach to laws of nature and their mathematical formulation are highlighted in this context, as well as the fact that many of the ultimate properties of nature may turn out to be formally unpredictable or uncomputable.

从许多不同的角度来看，自然服从法则的观念都令人兴奋。本文是基于现代宇宙学的背景。它将列出当代科学讨论的各个方面所产生的重大跨学科影响，这些讨论涉及自然法则的地位，特别是其动态本质。最近的工作强调了所观测到的宇宙的多个方面仍然缺乏解释，并且标准宇宙学的几个问题仍然成为争论的对象。考虑到这些问题，已经提出了一些建议，需要对自然法的概念进行修订，根据这些建议，应该使用指向哲学的方法或观点重新考虑时间的本质以及因果关系与自然法之间的关系。问题。我们认为，蒂姆·莫德林（Tim Maudlin）的时间演化基本定律（FLOTE）概念和南希·卡特赖特（Nancy Cartwright）的法则机器概念提供了新的见解和有价值的工具，可用于分析宇宙学和复杂系统背景下的定律状态理论。在这种情况下，自然法则的传统方法及其数学公式的局限性得到了凸显，而且自然的许多最终属性可能在形式上是不可预测或不可计算的。
