Is Environmental Virtue Ethics a "Virtuous" Anthropocentrism?

Subject

Philosophy

Description

This Special Issue addresses the preconception that virtue ethics is intrinsically anthropocentric and cannot fulfill the task of developing a moral attitude toward the environment. The provocative notion of “virtuous anthropocentrism” is intended to stimulate a renewal in the field of environmental ethics at large, including environmental virtue ethics as one of its most promising strains. More specifically, the field of environmental virtue ethics aims to overcome the dichotomy between human flourishing and environmental welfare.
