Бесполезные зомби?
Финиковый компот. 2024. № 19. С. 18–20.
The text presents answers to several short questions about the zombie argument. After considering in what sense zombies are conceivable, the author concludes that the only thing that can be safely inferred from the argument is the logical consistency of zombie concept, from which neither the nomological nor the metaphysical possibility of such beings can be inferred. For this reason, as well as the possibility of offering a mirror anti-zombie argument, the simply coherent notion becomes useless for solving the problem of the ontological status of subjective experience, since it cannot be used to prove one side's position.

The article examines the “weak” philosophy of the history of the social critic and philosopher Ivan Illich, which is based on the author’s reinterpretation of Thomas Aquinas’ analogia entis, which occurred under the influence of Illich’s acquaintance and friendship with a prominent representative of neo-Thomism Jacques Maritain. In Ivan Illich’s philosophy, analogia entis turns into ...

Social reality of the “Game of Thrones” is considered in this
article not as a model or a kind of reconstruction of Middle Ages reality.
On the contrary we argue that “Game of Thrones” as well as original “Song

This article seeks to redefine the Kim Pusik’s 金富軾 (1075-1151) Samguk sagi 三國史記 (Histories of the Three Kingdoms) as a more imaginative and literary text by foregrounding its “supernatural” elements (collectively referred to as “wonder tales”), rather than emphasizing the ‘Confucian’ orientation that has conventionally been prescribed to it. It reviews the extend of incorporation ...

Clarity of knowledge and reasoning is necessary in many cases. Yet vagueness in scientific thinking related to surprise, curiosity, and “ability to engage with not-knowing” (de Freitas) is also a crucially important source of scientific creativity. Starting from studies by C. S. Peirce and B. Russell, scientists have developed tools for working with increasingly accurate ...

Conventional English for Academic Purposes (EAP) curricula, particularly in contexts heavily influenced by standardized testing and a tradition of grammar-translation, often inadequately address the complex cognitive and pragmatic demands of spontaneous academic discussion. This pedagogical gap results in a persistent disconnect between students' receptive knowledge and their productive capabilities, specifically manifesting as an inability to ...

Диалог с таким Макиавелли позволяет автору ...

The article analyses certain nuances of the interaction between paradoxes and the principles of classical logic, in context of V. A.

The article examines organic theory within the socio-philosophical worldview of the Russian legal philosopher P. I. Novgorodtsev. The study employs the method of historical-philosophical reconstruction, aimed at revealing the internal logic of the development of Novgorodtsev’s political and legal thought by contextualizing his key concepts within a specific philosophical and politico-legal tradition. This approach allows ...

Макс Шелер (1874–1928) является одной из ключевых фигур в философии XX века. Прожив сравнительно короткую жизнь, он оставил яркий след в европейской философской мысли, в своих сочинениях осуществив глубокую и фундаментальную разработку основных областей философского знания. Всегда чувствуя актуальные тенденции современного мира и живо, со всей страстью своей спонтанности откликаясь на них, Шелер не случайно ...

Sociological texts on zombies are mostly interested in human problems (capitalism, pop culture, etc), not in zombies as such. Zombies as a specific form of (non) life remain a blindspot for sociologists. Scientists of other disciplines, like epidemiology and neurosciences, have already declared their ways for studying zombies. Our task is to outline the concepts ...

The article is devoted to the question of the compatibility between the illusionist theory of consciousness
and the widely accepted sentientist approach to the justification of moral status. Illusionism denies
the existence of phenomenal consciousness and qualia, claiming that we are disposed to believe that
they exist due to a systematic introspective distortion. If phenomenal consciousness does not ...

Illusionists have proposed an explanation for our tendency to make phenomenal judgements, attributing this disposition to introspective illusion that emerge from the functioning of the human brain. However, a crucial aspect of the illusionist approach is that such an illusion is precisely dispositional and does not necessarily lead to actual beliefs about qualia. A critique ...

The illusionist theory of consciousness denies the existence of the ‘phenomenal’ properties widely thought to render experience conscious. Central to the illusionist approach is what we call the distortion thesis — the claim that introspective mechanisms systematically misrepresent neural processes in a way that strongly inclines us to judge that they have phenomenal properties, creating ...

Согласно иллюзионистскому тезису об искажении, интроспекция искажает сложные физические свойства как простые феноменальные и создает иллюзию феноменальности. В докладе рассмотрено, какие модели искажения подходят для иллюзионизма. Эти паттерны предлагаются в связи с тремя характеристиками: позитивность, концептуальность и рассеиваемость. Позитивное искажение – это репрезентация отсутствующего на самом деле феноменального сознания. Негативное искажение представляет собой упрощенную или ...
