- W2287136092 abstract "Suppose that the question of whether the supervenient relationship between families of properties were solved in favor of a non-reductive dependency, and suppose further that the problem of personal identity were solved neither in terms solely of physical continuity nor in terms solely of psychological continuity but in terms of personhood. Then, it is conceivable that the door may be slightly ajar for the suggestion that the key to identifying one of the criteria for the reidentification of persons (personal identity) is the capacity that many human beings have of constituting their selves. The resulting self may possibly be conceived as a property supervening upon the physical and psychological properties of a human individual; a property that not only individuates a given human being but exemplifies that which persists in time.1 There have been hints in the literature of the problem of personal identity which suggest that, in order to do justice to the notion of personal identity, (a) the self should be treated as an emergent entity (Nozick, 92), or (??) that one must take a subjective view of the self as self-constituting (Schechtman, 86ff.), or (cj that the self has the capacity to create itself (Glover). Problems such as fusion and fission can be applied to non human objects as well as to humans, but if we take Locke seriously in his understanding of the term 'person* as being a forensic term, then the problem of personal identity cannot simply be reduced to nor resolved by attempts to base personal identity on physical or psychological continuity (used in a Parfitian sense). If we treat the term 'forensic* broadly, then the term 'person' may be applied to human beings who have a moral capacity, not simply in the sense of making decisions relative to interpersonal relations that can be deemed right or wrong, but in the wider sense of shaping a quality of life or style of life. If we are concerned solely with identity in respect to the physical continuity or the psychological continuity (as narrowly understood as it has been to this time) of a human, then we are really only concerned about the identity of a human being or individual not the identity of a person. Trying to ascertain the criteria of identity in respect to human beings (not persons) is not far removed from the effort to determine what the criteria are for the identity of artifacts and non-human beings. Of course, it makes for a simpler problem to leave it at the level of searching for the criteria of the identity of a human being rather that at the level of persons. And it seems obvious that if the self is going to be treated as that which is supervenient upon the physical and psychological, then, if there is no continuity in the physical and psychological properties or conditions, there will be no guarantee of continuity for the self as it persists in time either. Physical and psychological continuity relative to the identity of human beings will be necessary factors in respect to the more complicated concept of personal" @default.
