Zusammenfassung:
Comparative environmental philosophy is valuable in many ways. Perhaps it is most valuable because it reveals some of the foundational assumptions that run so deep in the poles of comparison that they might otherwise have gone unnoticed. These revelations may invite us to challenge those assumptions that have led to the kind of thinking responsible for much of the environmental degradation that we see today. 'Japanese Environmental Philosophy' gathers papers focused on the environmental problems of the 21st century. Drawing from Japanese philosophical traditions they investigate our relationships with other humans, nonhuman animals, and the environment.
