“…While the necessity relation comes in varying strengths, I shall follow nonreductive physicalist orthodoxy, according to which the necessity relation from P to A is metaphysically necessary (Tiehen 2018, 538;Kallestrup 2006, 473;Bennett 2003, 490). Some nonreductive physicalists prefer to emphasize other sorts of dependency relations between A and P, such as realization (Shoemaker 2007), constitution (Pereboom 2002), determinables (Yablo 1992), or, more recently, grounding (Kroedel and Schultz 2016;Stenwall 2020). I leave open these other possible relations, as they also share the core view that P metaphysically necessitates and determines A, and A depends upon some P, as articulated in Supervenience.…”
