This thematic issue aims to show that power ontology has implications concerning several major problems in the contemporary philosophy of mind. All paper submissions proposing an application of power metaphysics in contemporary philosophy of mind are welcome.</p>\n<p><strong><br></strong></p>\n<p><strong>The Issue:</strong></p>\n<p>The issue will contain a selection of invited contributions by prominent voices in the philosophical debate\, and will be open to submitted contributions focusing on any application of the metaphysic of powers in the contemporary philosophy of mind. A non-exhaustive list of topics is the following: powers and the &ldquo\;hard problem&rdquo\; of consciousness\; powers and the nature of qualia\; powers and reductionism\; powers and the problem of emergence\; powers and downward causation\; powers and mental causation\; powers and free will\; powers and hylomorphism\; powers and perception\; powers and panpsychism or Russellian monism.</p>\n<p>Invited contributors:</p>\n<p>- Alex Carruth (Durham University)<br>- Philip Goff (CEU)<br>- Simone Gozzano (University of L'Aquila)<br>- William Jaworski (Fordham University)<br>- Erasmus Mayr &nbsp\;(Erlangen-N&uuml\;rnberg)<br>- Hedda Hassel M&oslash\;rch (NYU/Oslo)<br>- Ben Page &amp\; William Simpson (Oxford &amp\; Cambridge)<br>- Michele Paolini Paoletti (University of Macerata)<br>- Barbara Vetter (Freie Universit&auml\;t Berlin)<br>- David Yates (Universidade de Lisboa)</p>\n<p><strong><br></strong></p>\n<p><strong>Submission Process:</strong></p>\n<p>All papers will be subject to double-blind peer-review\, following international standard practices.
