Abstract
Este artículo trata principalmente de la importancia ontológica de las propiedades dis- posicionales y, en defensa de su eficacia causal, subraya las diferencias entre dos puntos de vista sobre la causalidad, el propio de la causalidad efi- ciente, que es el habitual, y el correspondiente a la causalidad estructural, concluyendo que las dis- posiciones se identifican con causas estructurales. Sin embargo, aunque ambos puntos de vista sobre la causalidad son solo distintos y se complemen- tan, surgen significativos conflictos entre ellos.
This paper is mainly about the onto- logical signification of dispositional properties, and in order to uphold the causal efficacy of dis- positions, it highlights the differences between two points of view on causation: that of efficient causation, which is the usual one, and that corres- ponding to structural causation. The conclusion is that dispositions are structural causes. Howe- ver, although both points of view on causation are just different and complement each other, some meaningful conflicts arise between them
