Spinoza and Deep Ecology: Challenging Traditional Approaches to Environmentalism
Eccy De Jonge
This volume explores the philosophical, psychological and political assumptions that underpin a concern for nature, offering specific suggestions on how the domination of humans and nature may be overcome. It is primarily intended as an introduction to the philosophy of ecology, known as deep ecology, and to the way Spinoza's philosophy has been put to this aim. Only a self-realization, along the lines of Spinoza's philosophy, can afford a philosophy of care which is inclusive of humans and the non-human world, which recognizes the need for civil laws and democratic politics for human flourishing.
