The Logic of Environmentalism: Anthropology, Ecology, and Postcoloniality In "The Logic of Environmentalism Vassos Argyrou presents a thought-provoking critique of the modern environmental movement, arguing that it is not as revolutionary as it seems. Despite its emphasis on sustainability and preserving the natural world, the author contends that environmentalism is still rooted in the same Western, modernist logic that has shaped our understanding of nature and culture for centuries. This logic seeks to unify and homogenize, suppressing differences and reinforcing the dominance of the West as the ultimate source of meaning. The book begins by examining the evolution of technology and how it has influenced our understanding of the world. The author posits that the development of modern knowledge has been driven by a need to control and dominate the natural world, rather than to understand or coexist with it. This drive for mastery has led to a fragmentation of knowledge, where specialized fields such as ecology and ethnobiology have emerged as a result of the narrow focus of modern science.
The Logic of Environmentalism: Anthropology, Ecology, and Postcoloniality In «The Logic of Environmentalism» Vassos Argyrou представляет заставляющую задуматься критику современного экологического движения, утверждая, что оно не так революционно, как кажется. Несмотря на упор на устойчивость и сохранение мира природы, автор утверждает, что экологизм по-прежнему коренится в той же западной, модернистской логике, которая формировала наше понимание природы и культуры на протяжении веков. Эта логика стремится к унификации и гомогенизации, подавляя различия и укрепляя господство Запада как конечного источника смысла. Книга начинается с изучения эволюции технологий и того, как она повлияла на наше понимание мира. Автор утверждает, что развитие современного знания было обусловлено необходимостью контролировать и доминировать в мире природы, а не понимать или сосуществовать с ним. Это стремление к мастерству привело к фрагментации знаний, где специализированные области, такие как экология и этнобиология, появились в результате узкой направленности современной науки.
The Logic of Environmentalism: Antropology, Ecology, and Postcoloniality In «The Logic of Environmentalism» Vassos Argyrou fa riflettere le critiche del movimento ecologico moderno sostenendo che non è così rivoluzionario come sembra. Nonostante l'attenzione sulla sostenibilità e la salvaguardia del mondo naturale, l'autore sostiene che l'ambientalismo continua ad essere ambientato nella stessa logica occidentale e modernista che ha forgiato la nostra comprensione della natura e della cultura nel corso dei secoli. Questa logica cerca di uniformare e omogeneizzare, sopprimendo le differenze e rafforzando il dominio occidentale come fonte finale di significato. Il libro inizia studiando l'evoluzione della tecnologia e come ha influenzato la nostra comprensione del mondo. L'autore sostiene che lo sviluppo della conoscenza moderna è dovuto alla necessità di controllare e dominare il mondo della natura, piuttosto che comprendere o coesistere con esso. Questo desiderio di abilità ha portato alla frammentazione delle conoscenze, dove aree specializzate come l'ecologia e l'etnobiologia sono emerse dall'orientamento ristretto della scienza moderna.

The Logic of Environmentalism: Anthropology、 Ecology、 and Postcoloniality "The Logic of Environmentalism'ヴァソス・アルギロウは、現代の環境運動に対する思想的な批判を提示しており、それが見られるほど革命的ではないと主張している。自然界の持続可能性と保全に重点を置いているにもかかわらず、著者は、自然と文化の理解を何世紀にもわたって形作ってきた同じ西洋、モダニズムの論理に根ざした環境主義が残っていると主張しています。この論理は統一と均質化を求め、相違を抑制し、西洋の支配を究極的な意味の源泉として補強する。この本は、テクノロジーの進化とそれが世界の理解にどのように影響してきたかを調べることから始まります。著者は、現代の知識の発展は、自然界を制御し支配する必要性のためであり、それを理解したり共存したりしないためであると主張している。この習得への欲求は知識の断片化につながり、生態学や民族生物学などの専門分野は、現代科学の狭い焦点の結果として浮上した。
