Laburpena

This paper is mainly about the ontological signification of dispositional properties, and in order to uphold the causal efficacy of dispositions, it highlights the differences between two points of view on causation: that of efficient causation, which is the usual one, and that corresponding to structural causation. The conclusion is that dispositions are structural causes. However, although both points of view on causation are just different and complement each other, some meaningful conflicts arise between them.
