• W1499456950 abstract "The Epiphenomenal Mind is both a deflationary attack on the powers of thehuman mind and a defence of human subjectivity. It is deflationary because inthe thesis I argue that consciousness is an epiphenomenal consequence of eventsin the brain. It is a defence of human subjectivity because I argue that the mind issui generis real, irreducible, and largely an endogenous product (i.e. notdependent on society or its resources).Part I is devoted to arguing that the conscious mind is epiphenomenal.Arguing from, the irreducibility of mental states, the causal closure of thephysical domain, and the principle of causal explanatory exclusion, I seek todemonstrate that all theories of mental causation necessarily violate one or moreof these premises. Contemporary approaches to mental causation come undertwo broad categories, those that argue that mental events are supervenient onphysical events (such as Davidson, Kim and Horgan) and those (like Haskar)who argue that the mind is an emergent property of the brain. Superveniencebased theories, I argue, end up reducing mental states in their search for a theoryof mental causation and emergence based theories end up violating the principleof the causal closure of the physical.In part II, I explore some of the consequences of epiphenomenalism forsocial theory. This exploration comes in the context of a defence of humansubjectivity against (i.) those sociological imperialists who view the mind andself as a 'gift of society', and (ii.) social situationalists who have abandoned theconcept of action and an interest in 'what's in the head' of the actor, in favour ofa concept of social action which views behaviour as action only to the extent thatit is socially meaningful. The conclusion is that the social sciences should returnto an interpretative style (Weberian) methodology." @default.
