摘要： 尽管疫学因果关系论与间接反证法曾是解决环境犯罪因果关系认定难题的两种主要理论，但存在方法论缺陷。在理论界主张引入客观归责论予以弥补缺陷的同时，实务界也运用此种理论审理污染环境罪案件，主要有归责端口前移、归责客体扩张和归责过程简化三种方式，但规范化、体系化程度有待提高。作为一种分析工具，客观归责方法论不存在明显的体系偏好和绝对的路径依赖，其可借鉴性主要表现在客观判断的优先性、规范评价的侧重性、归责标准的位阶性以及刑事政策的导向性，有利于完善对污染环境罪实行行为、危害结果和因果关系的判断。

Abstract: Although causality of epidemiology and indirect reduction to absurdity were two main theories to solve the problems of identifying causality of environmental offenses, they had methodological faults. The theoretical circle supports to introduce theory of objective imputation in order to correct them, while the practical field use methodology of objective imputation to hear cases occurred by environmental pollution offenses in various ways. Forwarding imputation port, expanding imputation object and simplifying imputation process are three main ways, but the degree of normalization and systematization remain to be raised. As an analytical tool, methodology of objective imputation hasn't obvious systematical preference and absolute path dependence. Its recommendation is mainly reflected by priority of objective judgment, emphasis of normative evaluation, rank of imputation standards as well as orientation of criminal policy. The judgement of perpetrating act, armful consequence and causality of the offenses will be perfected through the above approaches.
