Consciousness, self-consciousness,Abstract
A comparative analysis of the ability of humans and other animals is carried out, in order to determine if there is any kind of discontinuity between them. It is proposed that the key differential factor consists on the presence or not of self-transparent subjective interiority. This criterion serves to differentiate human consciousness from those that can occur in other animal species, as well as in other known complex entities.
