Strong Emergence and its Relation to Philosophy of Mind
Nøgleord:
Metafysik, Bevidsthedsfilosofi, Emergens, ReduktionResumé
Denne artikel forsøger at besvare spørgsmålet om hvorvidt stærk emergens er et holdbart begreb, hvad det medfører, om der findes eksempler på stærk emergens og hvordan dette vedrører bevidsthedsfilosofi. Ifølge stærk emergens er visse sandheder om et givet høj-niveaus fænomen ikke reducer-bare, end ikke principielt, til det fænomen på lavere niveau som det afhænger af. I artiklen argumenteres der for at selvom stærk emergens er et holdbart begreb, så findes der ikke nogen overbevisende og uproblematiske eksempler i naturen. Ydermere medfører stærk emergens kontraintuitive konsekvenser for kausale strukturer og bevidsthedsfilosofi.
