Spanish term or phrase: Explicación Capacitaria
En este artículo argumentaré que no es apropiado atribuir responsabilidad a una persona que generó una situación mala a causa de un slip. De acuerdo con la Explicación Capacitaria, las personas son responsables en virtud de poseer y ejercitar ciertas capacidades agenciales necesarias para el autogobierno y el conocimiento. Con base en tales capacidades se reconocen dos condiciones necesarias para tribuir responsabilidad: la condición de control y la condición epistémica

Explanation:
Although I'm not formed of sociological/philosophical jargon at the best of times, I found this:

R. Tuomela - 1984 - ‎Philosophy
We shall in fact below not speak of capacity-explanation at all nor shall we employ the unclear requirement of "appropriate and adequate" explanation.
