Abstract
La conciencia es un hecho cotidiano. Todos experimentamos conciencia a cada momento. Al mismo tiempo, la conciencia es un hecho complejo. Se presenta bajo muchas formas y aspectos, y su explicación resulta extraordinariamente elusiva y está plagada de grandes problemas que la ciencia y la filosofía han señalado convenientemente. Para describir en qué consiste la conciencia a menudo se han venido empleando términos como “sustancia”, “estado” o “inmediatez”. Por desgracia, esta terminología resulta confusa y no refleja de manera adecuada la riqueza y la naturaleza dinámica de la conciencia. Por contraste a ese tipo de enfoques, en esta tesis voy a usar la noción de proceso para explicar el hecho de la conciencia. Síntesis. El objetivo de esta tesis es explicar la conciencia a través de la noción de proceso. Este enfoque procesual lo llevaré a efecto en tres grandes pasos. Primero, voy a tratar de definir cómo es y cómo se ha explicado la conciencia. El “cómo es” nos llevará a las propiedades de la conciencia, mientras que el “cómo se ha explicado” nos llevará a las teorías de la conciencia. Segundo, voy a presentar un marco teórico basado en la filosofía de procesos, en el cual se introducirán sucesivamente la noción de proceso transformativo y la noción de proceso autotransformativo. Tercero, voy a usar el marco teórico anterior para resolver algunos de los problemas que rodean al hecho de la conciencia...
Consciousness is an ordinary fact. Everybody is conscious and everybody has conscious experiences. Simultaneously, consciousness is an extremely complex fact. It appears under manifold appearances, and it is very hard to explain, as science and philosophy have appositely pointed out. Terms like “substance”, “state” and “immediacy” are often used to refer to conscious experiences. However, this terminology does not reflect the dynamic nature of consciousness. Unlike former approaches, in this thesis I am going to use the notion of process to explain the fact of consciousness. Summary. The aim of this thesis is to use the notion of process to explain the fact of consciousness. This process-based approach is composed by three main steps. First, I try to define how consciousness is and how has been explained. The former question is linked to the properties of consciousness while the latter is linked to the theories of consciousness. Second, I present a theoretical framework, based on process philosophy, where I introduce two very relevant notions, namely, the transformative processes and the self-transformative processes. Third, I apply this framework to solve some problems that surround the factof consciousness...
