metadata.value: The article highlights the main ideas of the original panpsychist concept of
  consciousness proposed by the contemporary American philosopher Gregg
  Rosenberg. The philosopher proposes to revise some of the provisions of the newest
  versions of panpsychism in order to solve the problem of mental causation and the
  combination problem. To do this, he puts forward the concept of natural individuals
  based on an original interpretation of causal relations. Within the framework of the
  theory presented by Rosenberg, it is assumed that a causal action consisting of two
  interrelated properties — effective and receptive — is a set of restrictions that some
  event imposes on what the world can be, and not on the effects that it produces in
  the world; this system of restrictions implies that the real world arises from space
  of potentialities. The theory proposed by the philosopher presents the world as
  individuals of different orders “layered” on top of each other, where deterministic
  macro-individuals can exist “on top” of micro-individuals in indeterminate states,
  making the latter, in turn, deterministic. Rosenberg’s concept is compatible with
  many achievements of modern empirical sciences, including assumptions about
  the role of information integration in the formation of phenomenal experiences,
  as well as relativistic ideas about the nature of space-time. For this reason, the
  concept under consideration seems very promising: it is likely that its further
  development contributes to solving the “hard problem” of consciousness known in
  modern analytical philosophy and will shed light on some fundamental issues that
  traditionally arise on the border between physics and metaphysics.
