我们提出了一种新的实际原因的定义，使用结构方程来模拟反事实。我们表明，该定义产生了一个合理的和优雅的因果关系的说明，很好地处理了一些例子，这些例子给其他定义带来了问题，并解决了传统解释中的主要困难。
We propose a new definition of actual causes, using structural equations to model counterfactuals. We show that the definition yields a plausible and elegant account of causation that handles well examples which have caused problems for other definitions and resolves major difficulties in the traditional account.
