Overview
I'm working on a philosophy writing question and need a sample draft to help me learn.
First, I would like you to remind me why there is a problem explaining mind-body causation if we accept either substance or property dualism. Having done that, make clear why the problem seems to reappear for physicalism. You might do this by thinking through the tension Davidson identifies in our talk of mental causes or through explaining Kim’s supervenience argument or in whatever way you wish. Finally, do you think the problem can be effectively addressed? In other words, can we make sense of the importance of mental causes as mental causes or is all the causal work done at the level of the physical?
