This book explores the contributions of East Asian traditions,
particularly Buddhism and Daoism, to environmental philosophy in
dialogue with European philosophy. It critically examines the
conceptions of human responsibility toward nature and across time
presented within these traditions. The volume rethinks human
relationships to the natural world by focusing on three main
themes: Daoist and Eurodaoist perspectives on nature, human
responsibility toward nature, and Buddhist perspectives on life and
nature. By way of discussing East Asian traditions and European
thinkers, this collection reveals that the impact of humanity on
the environment is shaped not only by distinctive modes of economic
production, but also by cultural beliefs and practices.
Representing a unique constellation of environmental and
intercultural philosophy, the contributions present systematic
approaches to the global need for cultivating environmental
responsibility across cultures and generations to address the
political, ethical, and aesthetic challenges arising from
humanity's transformative impact on the natural world. Presenting a
critical re-evaluation of human relationships to the natural world
in dialogue with East Asian traditions, this will be a valuable
resource for students and scholars of Philosophy, Environmental
Studies and Asian Studies.
