Abstract

Which are major debates in environmental ethics and why is necessary to put upside down the traditional anthropocentric/non- anthropocentric debate? Ecocentric ethic is not an anti-human position, and it has to become the global ethic: it's not a matter of economics but it's the common good, in a Socratic sense.
