Abstract
I will argue that accounts of mineness and pre-reflective self-awareness can
be helpful to panpsychists in solving the combination problems. A common
strategy in answering the subject combination problem in panpsychism is to
deflate the subject, eliminating or reducing subjects to experience. Many
modern panpsychist theories are deflationist or endorse deflationist
accounts of subjects, such as Parfit’s reductionism of personal identity and
G. Strawson’s identity view. To see if there can be deflation we need to
understand what the subject/self is. One aspect of consciousness left
unexplored and unappreciated by panpsychist theories is pre-reflective
self-consciousness/self-awareness. Theories of the self, inspired by
phenomenology, that are serious about subjectivity, could be of use in
arguing against the deflationary reductionism of the experiencing subject.
These theories show that there is more to the subject of experience than
just its experiences (qualities). Even without arguing for any precise
account of the nature of the self, it can be shown what phenomenology of
subjective character of consciousness and pre-reflective self-awareness
contributes to the combination problem debate.
