Despite the importance of this tenet, the meaning of the notion of chance invoked by this theory is still ambiguous. Moreover, it is the view of some biologists, historians, and philosophers of biology, that recent research results on the mechanisms of mutation have come to challenge this assumption. This is why the notion of chance used to characterize genetic mutations has to be clarified. In this paper, we provide an epistemological analysis of this notion, and conclude that what we call " evolutionary chance " is the Modern Sy...
