Receptivity is not passivity: A comparison between psychoanalysis and phenomenology concerning experience, judgement and the analytic attitude.

The International journal of psycho-analysis October 2023 Heinz Weiss

Starting from Edmund Husserl's last book Experience and Judgement, this paper explores the notions of "passivity" and "receptivity" in phenomenology and psychoanalysis. Both sciences agree that receptivity differs from passivity, but they have developed different conceptualizations about the very nature of the rudimentary "ego-activity" which is the source of receptivity. In phenomenological...

BEYOND THE BRAIN, THE PHILOSOPHY OF MIND IN THE SEARCH FOR AN ONTOLOGY FOR CONSCIOUSNESS

IBRO Neuroscience Reports October 1, 2023 Santiago Contreras

The cognitive neuroscientist intends to empirically demonstrate what he supposes of memory, emotions and executive functions, for this he has as object of study, "the brain" and elaborates explanatory models that belong to mechanicism as well as to physicalism within a realistic scientism. But what happens when a mental property such as consciousness is irreductible to neural correlates? Faced...

Reconceiving the Conceivability Argument for Dualism in the Philosophy of Mind

Synthesis philosophica September 25, 2023 Hane Htut Maung

U filozofskoj literaturi o svijesti i problemu odnosa uma i tijela, argument pojmljivosti protiv fizikalizma obično se uzima kao podrška obliku dualizma između fizikalnosti i fenomenalnosti. Obično se rasprava usredotočuje na kvalitativni karakter iskustva, što je fenomenalni osjećaj određenog iskustva. Nasuprot tome, subjektivni karakter iskustva – tj. njegova individuacija danom subjektu u...

The paper is in two main sections. Section I illustrates the different ways in which phenomenology's two roles have...

From Functionalism to Embodiment in Philosophy of Mind

Journal of Philosophical Investigations September 2, 2023 Tohid Hadinejad, Mahdi Behniafar

In recent decades, Functionalism has become a standard approach towards philosophy of mind and cognitive science, Functionalism is inspired by computer science and against prior theories about mind. Functionalism takes mind as a processor and body as a provider of raw data for this processor. Mind with the help of mental algorithms translates perceptional data to symbolic representations as...
