Radical Enactivism and the Problem of Subjectivity
The paper deals with the problem of subjectivity in the context of radical enactivism. Following Nagel, it claims that perspective character of conscious experience is the necessary feature of subjectivity. It is proposed to interpret the perspective character of conscious experience in terms of intentionality. Radical enactivism denies that the concept of content is important for the understanding of the nature of intentional states. Due to this denial radical enactivism faces with the problem of subjectivity. The paper provides an analysis of the arguments for radical enactivism and demonstrates their shortcomings. It also shows that sensori-motor enactivism of Noe could be that basis for the understanding of the nature of subjectivity.
