In this talk we will obtain perturbatively the correlations predicted by quantum theory for a system of two atoms which remain spatially separated. The striking phenomena of entanglement death and rebirth will be traced back to the reshuffling of these correlations among the atoms and the e.m. field. Apparent causality violations will appear as an artifact coming from the non-local specification imposed on the states.
