  1. 1. Conjunction monism : Humean scientific explanation explained

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Filosofiska institutionen

    Författare :Love Magnusson; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Laws of nature; Humeanism; Scientific explanation; Monism; Priority monism; Grounding;

    Sammanfattning : Humeans say that laws depend on their instances. Another way of saying this is that the instances explain the laws. However, laws are often used in science to help explain these same instances. If this is true it appears as though the instances help explain themselves, which would be a serious problem for the Humeans (Miller, 2015, pp. LÄS MER

  3. 2. On the possibility of property composition: A metaphysical investigation of submergent properties in top-down and bottom-up approaches to quantum mechanics

    Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för filosofi, lingvistik och vetenskapsteori

    Författare :Nova Ahlinder; [2022-01-25]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : In Schaffer’s Monism: priority of the whole (2010) an argument from quantum entanglement in favour of priority monism is put forward. The argument is based on quantum entanglement being a case of emergence and can loosely be described in terms of failure of property decomposition and success of property composition. LÄS MER

  4. 3. The Intelligible Necessitation of Consciousness : From ”panpsychism” to autopoietic enactivism

    Magister-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för idé- och samhällsstudier

    Författare :Linnea Martinsson; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Panpsychism; panprotopsychism; enactivism; consciousness; subjecthood; life; monism;

    Sammanfattning : Panpsychism, the view that fundamental physical entities are basic phenomenal subjects, is motivated by a commitment to explaining human subjects of experience, as well as by a rejection of the possibility that phenomenal properties are arbitrarily necessitated – human subjects of experience are thought to only be possible if prefigured by more basic phenomenal subjecthood. In this paper I will consider autopoietic enactivism as an alternative to panpsychism when it comes to explaining human subjects of experience on the basis of subjective precursors. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Shozo Ohmori’s 'Fancy' : A Third Mode of Awareness

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Filosofiska institutionen

    Författare :Robin Lagelius; [2019]
    Nyckelord :Awareness; Fancy; Perception; Conception; Perceptual Conception; Three-Dimensional; Three-Dimensional Objects; Three-Dimensional Space; Three-Dimensionality; Monism of Emergence; Shozo Ohmori; Shōzō Ōmori; Japanese Philosophy; Asian Philosophy; David Hume; Contrary-to-Fact Conditional Cases; Dispositional Terms; Other Minds; Historical Horizon; Atomic Conception of Time; Against Atomic Conception of Time; Awareness Natalis; Awareness Pluralis; Awareness in Motion; Awareness Compromised; Epistemological Concerns; Japansk filosofi; asiatisk filosofi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is an investigation into the phenomenon which Shozo Ohmori (1921-1997) considered “a peculiar manner of awareness”, and to which he attributed the term ‘fancy’. The objective is to achieve an approximate understanding of Ohmori’s theory of ‘fancy’, as it relates to awareness of entities in three-dimensional space, and the extensions mentioned in his only publication in English: “Beyond Hume’s Fancy” (1974).
