Embodied Cognition: the Constitution Hypothesis
Abstract — One of the most discussed topics in the Embodied Cognition (EC) domain is the so-called Constitution Hypothesis (Shapiro 2011), which focuses on the idea that our extra-neural body can be a constitutive part of the supervenience basis of cognitive processes and experience. Re-evaluating some phenomenological reflections about the body and its lived/living dimension, in this talk I will propose an argument to defend the Constitution Hypothesis, also criticizing the opposed intracranialist theses, such as the one proposed by Adams and Aizawa (2008).
