• @article{DeClercq2014-DECITA-2,number = {2},abstract = {In this paper, we take another look at the reasons for which the causal criterion of event identity has been abandoned. We argue that the reasons are not strong. First of all, there is a criterion in the neighborhood of the causal criterion---the counterfactual criterion---that is not vulnerable to any of the putative counterexamples brought up in the literature. Secondly, neither the causal criterion nor the counterfactual criterion suffers from any form of vicious circularity. Nonetheless, we do not recommend adopting either the causal or the counterfactual criterion because, given a sufficiently lax principle of event composition, neither criterion can be applied to complex events. This we regard as a (prima facie) undesirable restriction on their applicability.},title = {Is There a Problem with the Causal Criterion of Event Identity?},volume = {51},author = {Rafael De Clercq and Wai-Yin Lam and Jiji Zhang},journal = {American Philosophical Quarterly},year = {2014},pages = {109--119}}@
