A skeptical turn along these lines is Cartesian skepticism . Methodological solipsism is the thesis that the mental properties or mental states of an organism can be individuated exclusively on the basis of that state or property s relations with other internal states of the organism itself, without any reference to the society or the physical world in which the organism is embedded. The second definition was promoted by Jerry Fodor 1981 . He later went on to distinguish this thesis from another that he called methodological individualism . Fodor s motivation for introducing these concepts into the philosophical and now psychological lexicon was the need to defend some sort of internalism internalist conception of the mental from the problems posed by the famous Twin Earth thought experiment of Hilary Putnam . Very briefly, the question is whether it is possible for two people, one living in the actual world where water is H sub 2 sub O and the other living in some possible world Twin Earth where water has all the same qualities of our water but is actually composed of XYZ , to have the same ..., while the internalist insists that it is.

  1. The Politics of Individualism

    The Politics of Individualism Liberalism, Liberal Feminism, and Anarchism is a 1993 political science book by L. Susan Brown . She begins by noting that liberalism and anarchism seem at times to share common components, but on other occasions are in direct opposition to one another. She argues that what they have in common is existential individualism , the belief in freedom for freedom s sake. However, she notes that in liberal works there exists also an instrumental individualism , by which she means freedom to satisfy individual interests. Brown argues that the latter annihilates the intentions of the former because it allows individuals the freedom to disrupt the freedom of other individuals in its aim of achieving individual goals. On the other hand, instrumental individualism requires some degree of existential individualism to sustain itself. Next Brown looks at how these ideas of individualism were used in the liberal feminism liberal feminist writings of John Stuart Mill , Betty Friedan , Janet Radcliffe Richards , and Carole Pateman . She finds that the existential individualism expressed in some passages of these authors writings are effectively countered by notions of instrumental individualism contained elsewhere. Next she looks at how individualism was used by anarchists such as Emma Goldman and Alexander Berkman , and sees them as maintaining a consistency of existential individualism. However, she sees this as being less the case for other anarchists, including Pierre Proudhon , Peter Kropotkin , Mikhail Bakunin , and Murray Bookchin , who, rather than seeing individuals as existentialism existentially free to create their own destiny, devise other means to explain why such a society would work. For instance, she criticizes Kropotkin and Bakunin s efforts .... References note 1 1 The Politics of Individualism , p.  164. DEFAULTSORT Politics of Individualism ...

  1. Individualism Old and New

    orphan date October 2009 Individualism Old and New is a politically and socially Progressivism progressive book by John Dewey , an American philosopher, written in 1930. Written at the beginning of the Great Depression , the book argues that the emergence of a new kind of American individualism necessitates political and cultural reform to achieve the true liberation of the individual in a world where the individual has become submerged. Overview Dewey argues that America has become a socially corporate materialistic society which has been consumed by a culture of private pecuniary gain. Yet he also sees a simultaneous contradiction, for Americans do not outwardly value private gain in and of itself. Thus the individual is lost in a world of multiple and nearly meaningless associations and until the individual and his groups are harmonized as one, the individual will remain submerged. However, the problem remains undiagnosed and unseen, for intellectuals are held back by their belief in an older individualism that refuses to acknowledge the corporate nature of American society. Dewey writes that as long as this conception possesses our minds, the ideal of harmonizing our thought and desire with the realities of our present social conditions will be interpreted to mean accommodation and surrender. He thus argues for some kind of Socialism socialism where industry is controlled by democratic forms in the same way that they run our governments. He argues that fixing the problem with culture is the same with that of liberating the individual by abolishing culture driven by private ... a New Individualism 6.
