Abstract

This paper-in order to make a comparative study between Sadra’ s theory and a new western theory about soul’ s occurrence-first focuses on studying and explaining a new theory in philosophy of mind; called “ Emergentism” by contemporary philosophers. The author distinguishes between two version of Emergentism: strong and weak, and describes two challenges against the strong version which have adduced by physicalists. He, then, makes a brief review of Sadra’ s theory about soul’ s occurrence and its ranks, and thus considers the similarities and differences between Sadra’ s view and strong Emergentism. This paper, by referring to the common aspects of these two theories, believes that most challenges which have made against strong Emergentism are reformable versus Sadra’ s theory. He, finally, implicates some explications of Sadraian philosophers about mind – body connection, and shows their inefficiency to meet the objections and ambiguities of physicalist philosophers. He believes that Sadra’ s philosophy of mind needs further completion to satisfy this requirement. The main contribution of this paper is explaining the intersections and dissociations of these two theory, and some deficiencies and ambiguities of Sadra’ s view before Physicalism.
