 Opposed to those who think that a theory of feature binding will be a large component in our theory of attention, of the unity of consciousness, or of anything else, are a number of philosophers (and a smaller number of psychologists) who deny that feature binding creates a problem that needs any serious cognitive apparatus for its solution. Such claims have been made for a variety of reasons. They are generally made as part of large-scale revisionary proposals for the conceptual framework of cognitive neuroscience. Kevin O’Regan and Alva Noë’s rejection of the binding problem ‘as, in essence, a pseudo-problem’ (O’Regan and Noë, 2001, 967) comes as part of their general attack on the idea that perception requires the representation of the thing perceived. Vincent Di Lollo has suggested that the assumptions about neural coding that generate the binding problem have been superseded, with the result that the binding problem is an ill-defined one (Di Lollo, 2012). And M.R. Bennett and P.M.S. Hacker, in their book-length critique of the philosophical foundations of neuroscience, claim that the notions of representation and information that enjoy currency in neuroscience are subject to various confusions, and that these confusions lead to it being ‘widespread’ for neuroscientists to make “confused statements of the so-called binding problem” (Bennett and Hacker, 2003, 14). These debates about the status of the binding problem (reviewed by Plate, 2007) turn on foundational issues for the cognitive sciences generally. They have ceased to be specifically concerned with the explanation of attention.
