Thin, Thinner, Thinnest: Defining the Minimal Self

Embodiment, Enaction, and Culture April 14, 2017 Dan Zahavi 71 citations

A self can be defined in many ways, but the author defends a minimal, experientially based conception of selfhood. Responding to objections from Ratcliffe, Ciaunica, and Fotopoulou, the author argues that the minimal self is not interpersonally constituted. The answer to whether it is viable to suggest interpersonal constitution is negative.
