Philosophy of Mind in Latin America
RUDN Journal of Philosophy October 2, 2025 André Leclerc
Philosophers across Latin America—particularly in Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Chile, and Colombia—have made notable contributions to the philosophy of mind, covering topics such as externalism, naturalism, enactivism, extended mind, physicalism, mental causation, intentionality, consciousness, action theory, philosophy of information, ecological psychology, and the philosophy of perception, emotion, and memory. Organized research groups and regular conferences support this work. This paper highlights these contributions, emphasizing their relevance within the analytic philosophical movement in the region.
