Agent causation, or Agent causality, is an idea in philosophy which states that a being who is not an event—namely an agent—can cause events (particularly the agent's own actions). Agent causation contrasts with event causation, which occurs when an event causes another event. Whether agent causation as a concept is logically sound is itself a topic of philosophical debate.

  • 动因因果关系(英語:Agent causation)是哲学的一个概念,它指出不是一个事件存在的主因—即事件的动因,可以引起事件(尤其是动因所引起人的行动)的发生。动因因果关系与事件因果关系是相对的概念,后者是由一个事件引起另一个事件。动因因果关系作为一个概念,是否符合逻辑,在本质上是一个具有争议性的话题。这一理论的支持者包括苏格兰哲学家托马斯·里德和美国分析哲学家罗德里克·奇泽姆。里德认为,动因是唯一拥有意志的存在,并认为拥有意志是事件肇因的必要条件之一。 (zh)

  • Agent causation, or Agent causality, is an idea in philosophy which states that a being who is not an event—namely an agent—can cause events (particularly the agent's own actions). Agent causation contrasts with event causation, which occurs when an event causes another event. Whether agent causation as a concept is logically sound is itself a topic of philosophical debate. Defenders of this theory include Thomas Reid and Roderick Chisholm. Reid believed that agents are the only beings who have a will, and considered having a will to be a necessary condition of being considered the cause of an event. (en)
