In this paper we prove a version of the Berman\tire Konsowa principle for reversible Markov jump processes on Polish spaces. The Berman\tire Konsowa principle provides a variational formula for the capacity of a pair of disjoint measurable sets. There are two versions, one involving a class of probability measures for random finite paths from one set to the other, the other involving a class of finite unit flows from one set to the other. The Berman\tire Konsowa principle complements the Dirichlet principle and the Thomson principle, and turns out to be especially useful for obtaining sharp estimates on crossover times in metastable interacting particle systems.
