I don't believe emergence can be rationally studied. Explanations are inherently reductive. If an emergent cause could be explained by some accounting of its constituent parts, then it wouldn't be emergent. In that way it's like free will--if there's a deterministic explanation for free will, then it ceases to be free will (of the incompatibilist kind).
