Philosophical Ecologies

Philosopher A. Pablo Iannone deals with contemporary social fragmentation by applying an ecological model to a wide range of philosophical problems. Some issues are environmental, others intercultural, still others about matters of aesthetics and the place and role of science, ideology, and philosophy in our fragmented world. The book relies on substantial empirical information and sophisticated conceptions of policy making and social problems and issues. This brilliant, socially relevant study redefines the practice of philosophy and its relation to the real-world concerns of contemporary society.
