Event description:
Adam Pautz (Brown) presents a talk at ELLMM city titled “Does Russellian Monism Solve the Mind-Body Problem?”
Abstract: David Chalmers has recently argued that Russellian monism about consciousness combines the virtues of dualism and physicalism while avoiding their vices. I will argue that the opposite is true. My argument will proceed by way of a dilemma and is independent of the much-discussed “combination problem”
