La noción posthumanista de la cognición
Keywords:
cognición corporizada, cognición enactiva, post-humanismo, excepcionalidad humana, origen evolutivo de la cogniciónAbstract
A pesar del importante auge que han tenido discusiones sobre el posthumanismo en la última década, poco se ha dicho sobre su perspectiva acerca de la cognición. En este sentido, el propósito del presente documento es estudiar la propuesta post-humanista de la cognición. La tesis a probar es que dicha propuesta se constituye a partir de la conjunción de tres elementos: la cognición corporizada, el enactivismo y el origen evolutivo de la mente, elementos que surgen en el momento en el que el post-humanismo se propone dejar atrás al humanismo y sus ideas de excepcionalidad humana. De esta manera, la noción post-humanista de la cognición surge, precisamente de la crítica a la excepcionalidad humana.
