- W2067972843 abstract "Material constitution and physical realization are both relations that have been used in articulating views in metaphysics and the philosophy of mind. For example, Lynne Baker1 has recently defended the idea that material constitution is a general relation that holds between statues and what they are made of, dollar bills and pieces of paper, and persons and bodies, continuing a longer tradition within metaphysics that takes constitution to be an important relation holding between pairs of things in the world.2 Appeal to physical realization, especially to multiple realization, has been central to the discussion of mental causation and non-reductive forms of materialism about the mind.3 Both constitution and realization are often contrasted with the relation of identity. Formally, identity is reflexive, symmetrical, and transitive. Constitution and realization, by contrast, are irreflexive and asymmetrical. But are constitution and realization transitive relations? In metaphysics, the view that material constitution is transitive is ubiquitous, an assumption expressed by both proponents and critics of constitution views.4 Likewise, it is typically assumed within the philosophy of mind that physical realization is a transitive relation. In both cases, this assumption of transitivity plays a role in discussion of the broader implications of a metaphysics that invokes either relation. Here I provide reasons for questioning this assumption and the uses to which this appeal to transitivity is put. As my title suggests, I shall focus on the case of material constitution, using a brief discussion of realization at the outset to motivate the discussion of the transitivity of material constitution at the core of the paper." @default.
