Australasian Journal of Philosophy, 82(3), 464 - 476. https://doi.org/10.1080/713659879It is argued that if the properties of causation are tropes rather than universals, then a psychophysical reductionism can be advanced which does not face the problem of multiple realizability. However, the 'trope solution' rests upon the assumption... Read More about The Problem of Mental Causation and the Nature of Properties.
