Resumo: | Biocentrism, one of the newest tendencies of the ecological movement, proposes that natural rights should be extended to all elements of nature, and that a radical ethic position should be taken before all living beings and even lifeless material, thoroughly altering relations between mankind and nature. Roderick Nash, in his book The rights of nature, interprets biocentrism as a consequence of liberalism. Considering its continuity with the anglo-saxon tradition, it wouldn't even be a revolutionary tendency. The article contains a critical discussion of biocentrism proposals concerning relations between men and nature, as well as of its implications for a society with little or no liberal tradition at all, sociologically defined as a relational one. |

The rights of nature in a relational society: reflections on a new environmental ethicOs direitos da natureza numa sociedade relacional: reflexões sobre uma nova ética ambientalBiocentrism, one of the newest tendencies of the ecological movement, proposes that natural rights should be extended to all elements of nature, and that a radical ethic position should be taken before all living beings and even lifeless material, thoroughly altering relations between mankind and nature. Roderick Nash, in his book The rights of nature, interprets biocentrism as a consequence of liberalism. Considering its continuity with the anglo-saxon tradition, it wouldn't even be a revolutionary tendency. The article contains a critical discussion of biocentrism proposals concerning relations between men and nature, as well as of its implications for a society with little or no liberal tradition at all, sociologically defined as a relational one.Uma das tendências mais recentes no movimento ecológico, o biocentrismo, propõe que os direitos naturais deveriam ser estendidos a todos os elementos da natureza, e que uma postura ética radical deveria ser tomada antes que todos os seres humanos, e mesmo seres inanimados, modifiquem completamente a relação entre a humanidade e a natureza. Roderick Nash analisa o biocentrismo em seu livro "Os direitos da natureza", e o interpreta como uma conseqüência do liberalismo. Considerando sua continuidade com a tradição anglo-saxônica, não seria nem mesmo uma tendência revolucionária. O artigo contém uma discussão crítica das teses do biocentrismo, bem como de suas implicações para uma sociedade com pouca ou nenhuma tradição liberal, sociologicamente definida como "relacional".Editora FGV1994-12-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/reh/article/view/1987Revista Estudos Históricos; Vol. 7 No. 14 (1994): Commemorations; 265-290Revista Estudos Históricos; v. 7 n. 14 (1994): Comemorações; 265-2902178-14940103-2186reponame:Estudos Históricos (Rio de Janeiro)instname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/reh/article/view/1987/1126Barbosa, Líviainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2017-06-14T21:03:42Zoai:ojs.periodicos.fgv.br:article/1987Revistahttps://periodicos.fgv.br/rehONGhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/reh/oai||biblioteca.digital@fgv.br||eh@fgv.br2178-14940103-2186opendoar:2024-03-06T13:01:29.582045Estudos Históricos (Rio de Janeiro) - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)true |
