Abstract: This paper tries to show that Chemero’s conclusion is unwarranted because it is based on a very restricted and oriented choice of cognitive processes. It is to examine further examples of cognitive processes, which have generally been seen as prototypical examples of complex cognitive processes, necessarily based on representations. Chemero’s eliminativism of representations is unfounded, and radical embodied cognitive science is not an effective research program. 
