What is at Stake in Illusionism? (2016)
Journal Article
Tartaglia. (2016). What is at Stake in Illusionism?. Journal of Consciousness Studies, 236-255

I endorse the central message of Keith Frankish’s ‘Illusionism as a Theory of Consciousness’: if physicalism is true, phenomenal consciousness must be an illusion. Attempts to find an intermediate position between physicalist illusionism and the reje... Read More about What is at Stake in Illusionism?.
