Resumen. Una de las más arraigadas tradiciones de la filosofía occidental distingue mente y materia como dos categorías contrapuestas de la realidad. Incluso cuando dichas categorías conceden preponderancia a una de ellas, sus identidades se mantienen netamente separadas. Por el contrario, el monismo neutral sostiene que esa distinción es engañosa y se basa en una visión de la naturaleza que los nuevos avances en microfísica y psicofisiología van disipando gradualmente. Mente y materia no serían más que dos acepciones para la misma realidad subyacente cuya estructura puede organizarse en dos modalidades alternativas.
Palabras clave: Mente, materia, monismo neutral, percepción, estructura.
Abstract: The most deeply rooted tradition in western philosophiy distinguishes mind and matter as two opposing categories of reality. Even when that tradition gives preponderance to one of them, their identities are always kept neatly separadas. By contrast, neutral monism contends that this difference is basicly misleading and is based on a view of nature that new developments in microphysics and psychophysiology are gradually dissipating. Mind and matter are no more than two meanings for the same underlying reality whose structure can be organized into two alternative modalities.
Keywords: Mind, matter, neutral monism, percepction, structure.
