Product Description
The concept of naturalness has largely disappeared from the academic discourse in general but also the particular field of environmental studies. This book is about naturalness in general – about why the idea of naturalness has been abandoned in modern academic discourse why it is important to explicitly re-establish some meaning for the concept and what that meaning ought to be. Arguing that naturalness can and should be understood in light of a dispositional ontology the book offers a point of view where the gap between instrumental and ethical perspectives can be bridged. Reaching a new foundation for the concept of ‘naturalness’ and its viability will help raise and inform further discussions within environmental philosophy and issues occurring in the crossroads between science technology and society. This topical book will be of great interest to researchers and students in Environmental Studies Environmental Philosophy Science and Technology Studies Conservation Studies as well as all those generally engaged in debates about the place of ‘man in nature’. | Philosophy of Nature Rethinking naturalness
