CONTEMPORARY ECOLOGICAL PARADIGMS: PHILOSOPHICAL ANALYSIS OF THE ANTHROPOCENTRIC AND ECOCENTRIC APPROACHES
Keywords:
Ecological paradigm, anthropocentrism, ecocentrism, philosophical analysis, bioethics, sustainable development, coevolution, the “Nature-society” systemAbstract
The article analyzes the current state of relations between man and nature in the context of the modern ecological crisis from a philosophical point of view. The author studies the transformation of anthropocentric and ecocentric paradigms in order to gain a deeper understanding of environmental problems and identify opportunities for their solution. The article compares the philosophical and ethical foundations of these two approaches in ontological, epistemological, and axiological contexts. The author also emphasizes the importance of a synergetic approach to solving environmental problems, that is, shows the need to develop the relationship between man and nature through a new systematic and integrated methodology.
