Holger Thiel (CEU): Towards Relational Neutral Monism

In my talk I motivate and explore steps towards a position I label Relational Neutral Monism (RNM). Based on monism, RNM involves the claim that fundamental reality is all of one kind. From neutral monism, the position holds that fundamental reality stays neutral with respect to the mental and the physical. Finally, I combine these views with relationalism and claim that, first, exclusively relations figure at the fundamental level, second, these relations are internal and, third, mental and physical properties are grounded in these relations.
