HUMANA.MENTE Journal of Philosophical Studies
Call for Papers: Issue 29\, October 2015
Causation And Mental Causation
Editors: Raffaella Campaner (University of Bologna)\, Carlo Gabbani (University of Firenze)
Causation has been widely investigated in the recent philosophy of science and theories have been proliferating over the last decades. At the same time\, the problem of mental causation has played a pivotal role in recent debates in the philosophy of mind. It seems\, however\, that little or insufficient dialogue and exchange has been developed between these two fields of research..On the one hand\, scholars looking for general interpretations of causation have rarely faced up to issues arising from mental causation\, or discussed explicitly the framework and constraints that their proposals impose upon mental causation. On the other hand\, philosophers dealing with mental causation have often neglected or underestimated current theories and recent reflections on the nature of causality\, avoiding discussion of their possible implications for mental causation. The situation is slowly and gradually changing as an effect\, among other things\, of epistemological investigations within neuroscience\, psychiatry\, and clinical psychology\, but the relations between philosophical accounts of causation and theories of mental causation are still worth deeper consideration.
This issue of Humana.Mente intends to support and stimulate the interaction and exchange between the philosophy of causality and the research dealing with mental causation. It thus aims to address the following issues:
- José\; Luis Bermú\;dez and Arnon Cahen
- Jennifer Hornsby
- Peter Menzies
\n- Antonella Corradini
- Michele Di Francesco
- Sophie Gibb
- Stuart Glennan
- Alberto Peruzzi
- David Robb
- Michal Wierzchon
In addition\, TWO PAPERS on those issues\, and up to THREE REVIEWS OF BOOKS recently published (2010-2014) on relevant topics will be selected.
