A review and discussion is given of what has been called the Palatini method of variation of the action integral in several covariant theories of gravitation. There are at least two versions of this method: one of them gives metric affinities in all cases, i.e., the (strong) principle of equivalence; the other one leads to deviations in some cases, among the effects of which there are causal anomalies. It is shown how, with spinorial affinities treated in the second way, gravity and electromagnetism can be unified. (auth)
