Abstract
The main aim of this essay is to try to clarify a central question concerning the coherence of emergent dualism. The question is approximately this: How should we articulate and defend emergent dualism, if emergence is mostly interpreted as a kind of supervenience, and supervenience is rejected by the supporters of dualism together with the dependence of the mental on the physical? What should an adequate conception of emergence look like? This essay will be part of an attempt to provide an answer to this question.
