The need for solutions to environmental problems is urgent.
Expanded environmental research and knowledge, along with interest
in environmental issues, has focused attention on the social,
political, and practical aspects of environmental problems.
Environmental Political Philosophy searches for common
environmental goals, values, and policies in society. An essential
undercurrent in political theory about the environment is that such
issues are not questions of efficiency or technology. They cannot
simply be addressed through knowledge of processes and mechanics of
nature, by boosting or targeting research, or by allocating of
resources and development of technology. Neither can they be
resolved solely by increasing civic understanding and mounting
environmental campaigns or requiring endless eco-friendly actions.
A crucial element of environmental political philosophy is
highlighted through the studies in this volume, which address the
question of what constitutes efficient action or effective decision
making. Praxiology commences with empirical orientation, but does
so by maintaining the important sense that in the evaluation of
actions and policies, ethical considerations must be employed in
conjunction with effectiveness and efficiency.
