Naturalism and the Experiential Perspective

Abstract: The article discusses varieties of naturalism and the fundamental disagreement about reductionism versus perspectivism. The central part of the article focuses on Andrej Ule's idea about experiential perspective and the possibility of naturalizing the mind. I must confess I am not able to pin down all his suggestions about how to accommodate experiential perspectivity in nature, but I certainly find his ideas thought-provoking and inspiring.

“…I am more sceptic, as were in fact also Clark and Chalmers, about qualitative experiences and feelings. I think we are still struggling to give them a proper treatment in naturalistic approaches [26][27][28]. Nevertheless I think that the hypothesis of extended cognition opens up the need for new interdisciplinary collaborations between biological, humanistic, social and technical approaches.…”

“…Decision‐making is an essential part of a leader's job and serves as a measure of their performance. Educational leaders are faced with many choices and dilemmas daily, and the results of their decisions will shape the development of their school and the quality of education (Markič, 2009). Dual systems theory suggests that cognitively rational and emotional systems have distinct neural mechanisms, with the rational system centering on the prefrontal cortex and the emotional system centering on the hippocampus.…”

“…No, the path to a better life practice, to a more sovereign mastery of the world and life, to a more perfected well-being, the path of perfecting the usefulness of actualpractical and hypothetical-abstract tools is not a good path to take?! Of course, the path of fruitfully intertwining the rationality of positive science and philosophy has already been taken decades ago, as witnessed, for example, in many a study and research projects by cognitive scientists [9][10][11][12]. Cognitive science is thus a rewarding example of a successful intertwining of theory and practice, where the phenomenological, strictly theoretical insights are invested into the scientific manipulation of cognitive reality.…”
