ДУБИНСКА ЕКОЛОГИЈА: ПОКРЕТ И НОВИ ПРИСТУП У РЕШАВАЊУ ЕКОЛОШКИХ ПРОБЛЕМА
DEEP ECOLOGY: A MOVEMENT AND A NEW APPROACH TO SOLVING ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMS

Summary/Abstract: In the industrial society, nature is conceived as a resource for unlimited exploitation, and the entropic effects of its pollution and depletion can be effectively controlled and resolved. Non-human entities are viewed as raw materials for technical manipulation and the increase in the standard of living for consumers in mass societies. Contrary to such utilitarian pragmatism, some new views on the relationship of man, society and nature are appearing, as well as different concepts of environmentally balanced development. According to these views, the transition to ecological society and ecological culture will not be possible without replacing the current anthropocentric ethics with the ecocentric or environmental ethics. Deep ecology arises in the spectrum of environmental ethics theories. It is considered as a movement and a new approach to solving environmental problems. Deep ecology is a type of ecosophy formed by Arne Nes, and it focuses on wisdom and ecological balance.
