Bungean materialism

Bungean materialism, developed by philosopher Mario Bunge, asserts that everything that exists is made of physical matter or is directly related to physical processes. It emphasizes that mental states, consciousness, and social phenomena result from complex interactions of physical components, such as neurons or atoms. Bunge advocates for a scientific approach to understanding reality, prioritizing empirical evidence and logical reasoning. In essence, it posits that the universe, including human thoughts and social systems, can be explained through the properties and interactions of matter, rejecting supernatural or non-physical explanations.
