Shaun Gallagher (EN) - Pragmatism in cognitive science: Before and after enactivism

Shaun Gallagher August 24th 2021 Colloquium Enaction in perspective and in foresight In recent years numerous researchers have discussed a pragmatic turn in cognitive science. The general consensus is that this turn, or return to pragmatism is closely tied to the advent of non-representational embodied cognition (EC) sometimes referred to as 4E (embodied, embedded, extended and enactive) cognition. In some regards the pragmatic turn just is this turn to embodied action-oriented cognition that came to the fore starting in the 1990s. I’ll argue, however, that this is an oversimplification in a number of ways. First, in regard to the timing; second in regard to how pragmatism may have already been influencing mainstream cognitivists even prior to the turn to EC; and third, in regard to how pragmatism relates, somewhat unevenly, to the variety of EC theories. www.grimte.com
