Galen Strawson: On Consciousness, Panpsychism, and Free Will

In this episode, we sit down with philosopher Galen Strawson to explore his work in metaphysics, philosophy of mind, and free will. Strawson discusses his belief in panpsychism, why he sees experientiality as the foundation of reality, and his critiques of both materialism and idealism. He also reflects on growing up in a family of philosophers, his influences, and current projects, such as rethinking Descartes and revisiting Bertrand Russell's mind-body insights.How can matter be fundamentally experiential? And if you're not responsible for who you are, how can you be responsible for what you do? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
