Abstract

Eliminativism appears all of a sudden when the traditional materialism encounters two troublesome problems while resolving a mind-body problem, and trying to shake off or the other dilemma. The traditional materialism adopts one kind of exceeding form, insisting on its materialism position. On the mind-body problem, it claims that Mind, that is the ontology status, should be canceled. It thinks that in the world there is actually only one kind of matter. Although this theory has big defects itself, we can not deny that it is a driving force for deepening the mind philosophical studies and developing the Marxism consciousness.
