Reflections on the Limitations of the Theory of Conditions
he distinction between the theory of conditions,the theory of equivalent causation and the the-ory of objective imputation lies in whether conditional relationships can directly serve as the objective basis for criminal liability.According to the basic stances of the theory of equivalent causation and the theory of objec-tive imputation,the theory of conditions does not inherently expand the range of causation.Using the theory of conduct and subjective limitation theory to prevent the expansion of punishment scope is a shared approach a-mong these theories.Debates on causation judgments primarily focus on causation involving intervening fac-tors.The"conditio sine qua non"formula denotes necessary condition causation,while hypothetical causa-tion,alternative sufficient conditions,and double causation belong to sufficient condition causation.Criticisms of the theory of conditions lack logical grounding in these contexts.Overlapping causation and acts in compli-ance with obligations pertain to necessary condition causation,and applying the conditional formula to deter-mine causation does not lead to disputes arising from doctrinal differences.
