El problema de la fundamentalidad para el panpsiquismo
Main Article Content
Abstract
In this article I elaborate in detail the problem of fundamentality for panpsychism. I argue that, in light of three typical and recurring problems raised for panpsychism in the literature, the notion of fundamentality, essential to the formulation of the theory, becomes highly problematic. I then examine two problems of undecidability that derive from that notion: first, the inability to differentiate internally between different versions of panpsychism, and second, the difficulty to distinguish panpsychism externally from dualism and physicalism. I conclude with a comment on the modal status of panpsychism, raising questions about its viability and coherence.
