摘要：

Talk of powers is muddled. Building upon (Groff, in: R. Groff & J. Greco (eds) Powers and capacities in philosophy: The new aristotelianism, Routledge, London, 2012a, pp 207-227), I disambiguate four senses of the term: powers construed as activity, as capacity/potentiality, as essence and as necessity, respectively, in an attempt to clarify what it is that realists about causal powers take themselves to be realists about.
