  1. Re-Thinking Nature: Towards an Eco-Pluralism.Patrick Curry - 2003 - Environmental Values 12 (3):337 - 360.
    Both scientific realism and social constructionism offer unpromising and even destructive ways of trying to understand nature and human–nature relations. The reasons include what these apparent opponents share: a commitment to the (latterly) modernist division between subject/culture and object/nature that results from what is here called 'monist essentialism'. It is contrasted with 'relational pluralism', which provides the basis of a better alternative – ecopluralism – which, properly understood, is necessarily both ecocentric and pluralist.

  • Can a theory of moral sentiments support a genuinely normative environmental ethic?J. Baird Callicott - 1992 - Inquiry: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Philosophy 35 (2):183 – 198.
    The conceptual foundations of Aldo Leopold's seminal land ethic are traceable through Darwin to the sentiment?based ethics of Hume. According to Hume, the moral sentiments are universal; and, according to Darwin, they were naturally selected in the intensely social matrix of human evolution. Hence they may provide a ?consensus of feeling?, functionally equivalent to the normative force of reason overriding inclination. But then ethics, allege K. S. Shrader?Frechette and W. Fox, is reduced to a description of human nature, and the (...)

  • Vegetarianism Versus Environmentalism.David Bryant Waller - 1996 - Dissertation, University of Massachusetts Amherst
    Vegetarianism is defined here as the view that the needless killing or eating of animals is wrong. A number of environmental ethicists oppose animal liberation in general and vegetarianism in particular. Many of their arguments are motivated by a concern that the principles of animal liberation imply negative evaluations of life processes intimately associated with the natural world, particularly pain, death, and predation. Environmentalists also charge that animal liberation entails a distancing of humanity from nature in a manner that is (...)
