    The concept of affordance, proposed by James J. Gibson as an opportunity for action offered by the environment to the organism, has been adopted in various fields, including psychology, neuroscience, and robotics. However, different interpretations exist as to whether it is a feature of a relation between the environment and the organism and therefore cannot exist independently of the organism, or a “resource” that exists in the environment independent of the organism’s presence and is waiting to be used, or both, or neither. In this paper, we defend the position that affordances are both relational and resources using a category-theoretic approach. This idea is formalized by the concept of “natural transformations” in category theory, which are structure-preserving transformations between “functors” – mathematical expressions representing “seeing from a particular perspective.” We propose that formalizing the realism of affordance in terms of natural transformations offers a more rigorous and lucid understanding of this concept. Furthermore, our formalization enables us to relate the reality of affordances to a broader context, especially the shift in the meaning of “reality” in modern physics. Our category-theoretic approach offers a potential solution to the problems and limitations associated with existing set theory-based frameworks for affordances, paving the way for a future theory that better accounts for the openended interplay between organisms and their environments.

    “Ur-Ich” is Husserl’s term for the problem dimension concerning the “I” that appears when we go deeper than transcendental phenomenology at the first stage. It is disclosed mainly in two contexts: the radicalized reduction to the primal streaming in the theory of temporalization and the radicalized epoché regarding the validity of intersubjectivity. It is an apparent misunderstanding to interpret it as a trans-individual metaphysical ego beyond empirical egos or as a solipsistic ego that creates other egos out of itself. Instead, it signifies a fundamental phenomenon of being I, without which the transcendental self-disclosure of the primal life and the experience of “being with others” would not be possible.

    Human consciousness is characterized by constant transitions in time. On the other hand, what is consciously experienced always possesses the temporal feature of “now.” In consciousness, “now” constantly holds different contents, yet it remains “now” no matter how far it goes. This duality is thematized in Husserlian phenomenology as “the standing-streaming now.” Although this phrase appears contradictory in everyday language, it has a structure that can be clearly understood and formalized. In this paper, we show that this structure can be described as a monoid in category theory. Furthermore, monoids can be transformed into the coslice category, which corresponds to the way of perceiving present moments as juxtaposed in succession. The seemingly contradictory nature of the “now” as both flowing and standing can be precisely structured and comprehended through the monoid, while the perspective of the “now” as discrete points on a timeline can be effectively formalized using the coslice category. This framework helps us more precisely understand the differences between ordinary consciousness and meditative consciousness, specifically the experience of the “eternal now.” We illustrate how the meditative states of consciousness presented in the early Buddhist scriptures (Pali Canon) and Dōgen’s Shōbōgenzō remarkably reflect a monoid structure.

    Life continuously changes its own components and states at each moment through interaction with the external world, while maintaining its own individuality in a cyclical manner. Such a property, known as “autonomy,” has been formulated using the mathematical concept of “closure.” We introduce a branch of mathematics called “category theory” as an “arrow-first” mathematics, which sees everything as an “arrow,” and use it to provide a more comprehensive and concise formalization of the notion of autonomy. More specifically, the concept of “monoid,” a category that has only one object, is used to formalize in a simpler and more fundamental way the structure that has been formalized as “operational closure.” By doing so, we show that category theory is a framework or “tool of thinking” that frees us from the habits of thinking to which we are prone and allows us to discuss things formally from a more dynamic perspective, and that it should also contribute to our understanding of living systems.

    Social cognition has received much attention in fields such as neuroscience, psychology, cognitive science, and philosophy. Theory-theory (TT) and simulation theory (ST) provide the dominant theoretical frameworks for research on social cognition. However, neither theory addresses the matter of how the concepts of "self" and "other" are acquired through the development of human and nonhuman agents. Here, we show that the internal representations of "self" and "other" can be developed in an artificial agent only through the simple predictive learning achieved by deep neural networks with the superposition mechanism we herein propose. That is, social cognition can be achieved without a pre-given (or innate) framework of self and other; this is not assumed (or is at least unclear) in TT and ST. We demonstrate that the agent with the proposed model can acquire basic abilities of social cognition such as shared spatial representations of self and other, perspective-taking, and mirror-neuron-like activities of the agent's neural network. The result indicates that the superposition mechanism we propose is a necessary condition for the development of the concepts of "self" and "other" and, hence, for the development of social cognition in general.

    Psychotherapy is a comprehensive biological treatment modifying complex underlying cognitive, emotional, behavioral, and regulatory responses in the brain, leading patients with mental illness to a new interpretation of the sense of self and others. Psychotherapy is an art of science integrated with psychology and/or philosophy. Neurological sciences study the neurological basis of cognition, memory, and behavior as well as the impact of neurological damage and disease on these functions, and their treatment. Both psychotherapy and neurological sciences deal with the brain; nevertheless, they continue to stay polarized. Existential phenomenological psychotherapy (EPP) has been in the forefront of meaning-centered counseling for almost a century. The phenomenological approach in psychotherapy originated in the works of Martin Heidegger, Ludwig Binswanger, Medard Boss, and Viktor Frankl, and it has been committed to accounting for the existential possibilities and limitations of one’s life. EPP provides philosophically rich interpretations and empowers counseling techniques to assist mentally suffering individuals by finding meaning and purpose to life. The approach has proven to be effective in treating mood and anxiety disorders. This narrative review article demonstrates the development of EPP, the therapeutic methodology, evidence-based accounts of its curative techniques, current understanding of mood and anxiety disorders in neurological sciences, and a possible converging path to translate and integrate meaning-centered psychotherapy and neuroscience, concluding that the EPP may potentially play a synergistic role with the currently prevailing medication-based approaches for the treatment of mood and anxiety disorders.

    In this paper, I propose a possible reinterpretation of phenomenology using a newly defined concept of ‘mediation.’ First, I address the question: What are the ‘things themselves’ that are given as the result of the phenomenological epoché? I would answer that they are neither material objects nor merely subjective experiences, but rather specific occurrences of ‘mediations.’ Second, under the influence of the Japanese philosopher Hajime Tanabe, I will define ‘mediation’ as a non-separable occurrence of differentiating and connecting. Third, I shall claim that the concept of ‘phenomenon’ itself should be reinterpreted in terms of its character of mediation. Then, I will discuss central issues in phenomenology such as intentionality, time, and inter-subjectivity in order to test the applicability of the proposed concept of mediation. To conclude, I shall summarize the potential of the idea that phenomenology can be reinterpreted using the concept of mediation.

    Transcendental reflection does not simply withdraw from natural life and go somewhere else. On the contrary, it is a self-elucidation of natural life performed within this life itself. However, natural life has an inherent automatic system for concealing itself. Therefore, in order to make manifest the truly natural state of natural life, we need a deliberate method of outfoxing the natural attitude as it constantly tries to trick us. If so, the transcendental perspective is closely related to Husserl’s perplexing concept of “primal I”. It expresses a primitive perspective of our experience that cannot be identified with the first-person perspective. Phenomenology is not merely an investigation of experience from the first-person point of view, but a philosophical thinking from a “zero person” perspective that makes it possible for us to understand the relativity of our own first-person experience, and how it is related to other first-person experiences and the third-person perspective.

    Asai (2019) discusses a transformation of the view of reality resulting from the Bayesian theory of inference. The current paper offers philosophical interpretations concerning the significance, scope, and possible development of Asai’s discussion, which are especially based on a phenomenological point of view. Asai’s Bayesian view of reality is closely related to phenomenology. It implies a denial of determinism and naive realism. However, these traits of Asai’s view can signify a more moderate and scientific attitude. What an individual experiences as reality is the effect of certain filters that his or her experience has. Asai calls this effect “attention”; however, it is better described as “consciousness.” His interpretation of reality as mutual interference of waves is convincing and closely matches the quantum theoretical view of reality. Finally, such a transformation of the view of reality can positively affect the view of “mental disorder.” The aim of psychiatric treatment should not be to conform patients to the “only one same reality” (which is illusory), but to gear (or accommodate) different realities to each other.

    In this essay we critically evaluate the progress that has been made in solving the problem of meaning in artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics. We remain skeptical about solutions based on deep neural networks and cognitive robotics, which in our opinion do not fundamentally address the problem. We agree with the enactive approach to cognitive science that things appear as intrinsically meaningful for living beings because of their precarious existence as adaptive autopoietic individuals. But this approach inherits the problem of failing to account for how meaning as such could make a difference for an agent’s behavior. In a nutshell, if life and mind are identified with physically deterministic phenomena, then there is no conceptual room for meaning to play a role in its own right. We argue that this impotence of meaning can be addressed by revising the concept of nature such that the macroscopic scale of the living can be characterized by physical indeterminacy. We consider the implications of this revision of the mind-body relationship for synthetic approaches.

    The aim of this article is to propose a universal method to fundamentally understand what “sameness” means, and how it is possible to subsist. We could not perceive anything if there were no difference at all in our experience. Our experience of the same thing is essentially mediated by multiple differences. Given that differences are ubiquitous and fundamental, “sameness” can be interpreted as “nulled difference.” To perceive something as a same thing means that in our experience, there occur counteractions to certain differences. The same is the effect of such counteractions to differences, which makes a contrast with straightforward differences. This contrast — which is a sort of difference again — distinguishes the same from its background differences. Accordingly, I claim that sameness can be defined by (and reduced to) difference. To support this claim, I refer to empirical experimental knowledge concerning fixational eye movement, vision of toads, neural adaptation, and the nature of neuron.

    One of the most mysterious phenomena in science is the nature of conscious experience. Due to its subjective nature, a reductionist approach is having a hard time in addressing some fundamental questions about consciousness. These questions are squarely and quantitatively tackled by a recently developed theoretical framework, called integrated information theory (IIT) of consciousness. In particular, IIT proposes that a maximally irreducible conceptual structure (MICS) is identical to conscious experience. However, there has been no principled way to assess the claimed identity. Here, we propose to apply a mathematical formalism, category theory, to assess the proposed identity and suggest that it is important to consider if there exists a proper translation between the domain of conscious experience and that of the MICS. If such translation exists, we postulate that questions in one domain can be answered in the other domain; very difficult questions in the domain of consciousness can be resolved in the domain of mathematics. We claim that it is possible to empirically test if such a functor exists, by using a combination of neuroscientific and computational approaches. Our general, principled and empirical framework allows us to assess the relationship between the domain of consciousness and the domain of mathematical structures, including those suggested by IIT.

    The influential 20th century Japanese philosopher Tanabe Hajime (1885- 1962) developed a unique concept of the self that can help us to rethink the question "What is the self?" In his view, the self should neither be objectified nor thought of as something hidden behind the phenomenal world. It entirely manifests itself in our experience, but nevertheless, cannot be observed as a fixed object. This is because the self is nothing other than the "mediation" that is operating in our experience of all that appears as concrete reality. For example, the mediation between the material and the spiritual is naturally accomplished in the bodily action that the self performs without making itself appear as an objective being. It is neither the case that the visible body is the self, nor that the self is completely apart from the body. The self is the most engaged performer in this play, but who, for all that, does not appear on the stage. Thus, the self as "mediation" should not be regarded as a being, but as "nothingness." This does not mean that our self is simply nothing, however. Rather, it is only by being aware of the self as nothingness that we can properly understand how our self is able to serve as a transcendental condition (or mediator) of all those things that appear as beings. By this thought, we are not required to willfully abandon the self as a being in a practical action, we are already made to abandon it. This fact shows that the thought of the self as nothingness has significant practical implications. Such a reinterpretation of the self culminates in a reinterpretation of the mediation between God and worldly subjects, which is determined by Love and Great Compassion.

    京都学派の哲学者であり、西田幾多郎の後継者・批判者である田辺元は、生涯にわたって独自の「媒介」概念を彫琢し、彼の哲学の随所で活用している。田辺は「一切は媒介されている」という絶対媒介の立場をとる。その「媒介」概念は、「切ることによって繋ぐ」という言葉で特徴づけられている。切れていること=断絶もまた媒介の一種である。それゆえ、田辺の言う「媒介」は、一切を吸収する同一性の思想を表現するものではなく、媒介される個の自立性、いいかえれば個と個の絶対的差異を不可欠の契機とする関係を意味する。このような田辺の「媒介」概念は、差異と分断に満ちた現実を分析するツールとなりうる。それは、差異や分断があるところで、思考を停止させることなく、分析的思考を駆動する機能を果たしうる。たとえば「他者」や「意識」の問題は、しばしば思考を空回りさせる困難を伴っているが、「媒介」に着目するなら、「分断」は分析可能な「つながり」に転換される。また、田辺の「媒介」概念は、政治的・文化的・宗教的対立に関しても、差異を均した統一ではなく、対立が対立のままで媒介であるような観点を開くことで、ある種のインパクトをもちうるだろう。

    「意識とは何か」という問題は、現代において哲学と科学と医療にまたがる大問題である。本研究の目的は、この大問題に、以下の三つの方法を組み合わせてアプローチすることである。①第一に、「現象学」を一つの理論的な核として、哲学・精神医学・神経科学・ロボティクス・数学の密接な学際的共同研究を行う。②第二に、「意識変容」という正常な意識状態からの逸脱に焦点を当て、変容した意識と正常な意識とを対比することにより、意識の本質的特性に迫る。③第三に、「圏論」という数学的理論を用いて、上述の諸研究から浮かび上がる関係論的構造を分析する。これにより、意識研究を一段新しい次元にもたらす新たな理論的枠組みを提起する。

    2018年度は、西洋哲学、日本哲学のニヒリズム関連文献を精査し、比較検討を進めた。まず第一に、これまで研究してきた西洋におけるニヒリズムへの取り組みを整理した。現代に関しては、とりわけニーチェ、ハイデガー、サルトルにおけるニヒリズムと「無」へのアプローチを再整理し、論文にまとめる準備を行った。 この作業と平行して、近代日本哲学の研究を進めた。基本文献を揃え、その研究を開始した。18年度はまず西谷啓治のニヒリズム研究の検討を進め、The Self-Overcoming of Nihilism (1990, 『ニヒリズム』著作集第8巻の英訳) 、Religion and Nothingness (1982, 『宗教とは何か』の英訳)およびその他の関連文献の研究を進めた。 西田幾多郎の哲学についても、予備的な研究を進めた。An Inquiry into the Good (1990), Place and Dialectic (2012)を主に検討した。これらの文献研究と並行して、学内でのディスカッションを通して情報収集を行うとともに、多様な角度からこれまでの研究成果を吟味した。さらに、近代日本哲学におけるニヒリズムとの対決について、専門研究者とのディスカッションを行い、情報収集を行った。 本研究の重要な独自性を成す日本独自の心理療法(特に内観療法)の研究についても、2018年度は専門研究者や実践家への複数のインタビューを行った(奈良内観研修所、大阪内観研修所、大阪学院大学)。これらのインタビューは予想外の成果を挙げ、研究上大きな示唆を得た。この成果は、さらに調査を継続することによって、本研究の一つの柱となりうることが明らかになった。

    分担者は、フッサールおよびライプニッツのモナド概念に関する研究を、西田幾多郎の哲学と付き合わせるという研究を継続した。とりわけ、ライプニッツとデカルトの哲学に関する西田の解釈を詳細に検討した。その成果は、2015年7月に京都で開催された西田哲学会第13回年次大会において行った発表に生かされているほか、The Essence of Individuality in Kitaro Nishida’s works と題する論文においても、本質的な役割を果たしている。後者の論文は、Gilles Campagnolo氏によって編集された Liberalism and East Asian/Chinese economic development: Perspectives from Europe and Asia(Routledge, 近刊)と題する論文集に収録される予定である。 また、分担者は「自己」に関する研究を継続し、2015年5月、Self and (its) Realization(s)と題する国際会議を企画し、研究代表者との協力のもと、北海道大学で同会議を開催した。基調講演者としてゲイレン・ストローソン氏を招聘したほか、6名の招待講演者、公募による15名の発表者が研究発表を行い、「自己」の問題をめぐって集中的に討議を行った。 今年度は、パドヴァ大学との研究交流も拡大し、同大学から2名の研究者を招聘し、二つのワークショップを開催した。さらに、Alessandro Salice 氏を招聘して、ワークショップを開催した。 研究分担者は、現象学の国際研究誌 Metodo の編集委員として、同誌において「超越論的なもの」に関する特別号を企画し、刊行した。この特別号には、分担者の依頼により、現象学および超越論的哲学の著名な研究者が論文を寄稿している。

    1. According to the Husserl seeing images has three factors. 1) image-thing (upon which an image appears), 2) image-object (image which appears) and 3) image-sujet (the depicted object itself). And the latter two have the relation of resemblance. But by this alone the phenomenon of image is not yet realized. For that , it is necessary for us to interrupt positing the being of the image-object (neutral modification). OGUMA studied this modification. TAGUCHI studied the resemblance and the relation of resemblance and the passivity of image-experience. 2. KIYOZUKA analysed the relation between what is seen and what is represented. 3. YAMADA argued the relationship between perception and concept in reference to Wittgenstein's thought about "Aspect Switching". 4. OGUMA also studied the relationship between perception and meaning. According to Husserl, two factors of perception(sensation and meaning) come to being through the medium of Inner Time-consciousness.

    This project focused on the concept of "evidence" that plays a crucial role in Husserl's phenomenology. It was investigated in detail how evidence relates to the concept of "ego" as an important basis for his later phenomenology and what thought of "truth" is suggested by phenomenology on the basis of such a relationship between evidence and ego. This investigation was carried out through a close examination of Husserl's published works and his (partly unpublished) research manuscripts. The result of this investigation was critically evaluated by comparison with associated studies in analytic philosophy, cognitive sciences, and science studies.

    Cultures cannot be “objectively” conceived from “outside”, precisely because theresearcher himself belongs to a specific culture of his own. However, one-s “ownculture” is itself never pure, but a hybrid. Thus, what is “between” one-s ownculture and foreign cultures becomes the central problem. In this “between-ness”,a culture opens/closes itself to foreign cultures; therefore, the “between” itselfpulsates. This project provided a hub where younger researchers could work, andphenomenological investigations into the pulsating movement of interculturality wereconducted from the five perspectives of “language”, “encounter”, “coexistence”,“spirit”, and “time”, thereby clarifying some important conditions for theintercultural “culturing” of cultures.

    Husserl's concept of "reason" traces our discursive reason back to a kind of intuitive reason as "evidence". On the basis of such a "reduction" Husserl sharpens the question about "measure" and "ground" of thinking, which consequently brings about an "egological" and "ethical" turn in phenomenology. Husserl's concept of "primal I" and "phenomenologizing I" as well as that of "responsibility" carried by such an "I" provide a clue to understanding Levinas's thought of "subjectivity" and "reason" in a phenomenological way. The concept of "reason" proposed by Levinas can be interpreted as such an ethical one that signifies "awakening" from self-intoxication of cognitive reason.

    「いのち・からだ・こころ」をめぐる現代的問題への応用現象学からの貢献を試みた本研究は、(1) 看護ケアと緩和ケア、(2) 統合失調症や自閉症などの精神病理、(3) 認知科学、認知言語学、システム論、(4) 舞踊論と身体論の各分野において、一定の応用現象学的アプローチを行うことができた。また、本研究遂行の過程で、ドイツや北欧の研究者たち、さらには本研究の開始とほぼときを同じくして「応用現象学」が注目され始めた韓国の研究者との交流も深まり、今後の研究の連携の可能性が開かれた。
