Again, my (and Leibniz's and Plato's)  rational-analytic hierarchical 
or tree-structure  model of

        self->mind->brain->body  

in which the One self controls the many

is a sort of republican form of Government (see Plato's The Republic),
with the more intelligent layers ruling the less intelligent ones.
This might be more susceptible to computer emulation 
This is completely different than that of Materialism,
or reductionistic (logical atomism) model of mind which is 
essentially mob rule:

"Reductionism | Define Reductionism at Dictionary.com
noun 1. the theory that every complex phenomenon, especially in 
biology or psychology, can be explained by analyzing the simplest, 
most basic physical mechanisms that ..." etc.

In Freud's version of this we are controlled by unconscious desires, 
essentially being victims of mob rule. One can see this form
of mind in the art of German Expressionalism.
