Functionalism, Homunculi-Heads, and Absent Qualia

Dialogue March 1, 1983 Ray Elugardo

It has recently become quite fashionable for one to defend a functionalist theory of mental states. However, as with most trends, functionalism has come under fire in certain philosophical quarters. In this paper, I shall not take up the question of whether any version of functionalism is true. I shall instead discuss a particular objection to a specific brand of functionalism.
