Speaker 1 Summary

Mario says that cognitive science is not a genuinely autonomous discipline. Why not? Because a genuinely autonomous discipline must have a unique domain of inquiry, but the domain of cognitive science overlaps with other disciplines.

Speaker 2 Summary

Lucy disagrees with Mario’s definition of what makes a discipline genuinely autonomous. She claims that a genuinely autonomous discipline is defined by a unique methodology, not a unique domain of inquiry. Lucy supports this with the example of philosophy, which Mario agrees is autonomous despite the fact that its domain overlaps with several other fields.

Objective

We need to find a point of disagreement. Mario and Lucy disagree on what defines a genuinely autonomous discipline. Mario thinks it’s a unique domain, but Lucy thinks it’s a unique methodology.
