Details

Eliminative materialism is a materialist position in the philosophy of mind. Its primary claim is that people's common-sense understanding of the mind is false and that certain classes of mental states that most people believe in do not exist. Some eliminativists argue that no coherent neural basis will be found for many everyday psychological concepts such as belief or desire, since they are poorly defined. Rather, they argue that psychological concepts of behaviour and experience should be judged by how well they reduce to the biological level.Other versions entail the non-existence of conscious mental states such as pain and visual perceptions. Eliminativism about a class of entities is the view that that class of entities does not exist.For example, all forms of materialism are eliminativist about the soul modern chemists are eliminativist about phlogiston; and modern physicists are eliminativist about the existence of luminiferous aether
