Žmogaus Ir Gamtos Santykis Tomo Hobso Filosofijoje: Nuo Konflikto Iki Aplinkos Apsaugos Svarstymų

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: In order to find out whether there is a possibility for developing environmental protection policy in Thomas Hobbes’ political theory, the publication examines Hobbes’ approach to man, biotic and abiotic nature, and their interrelationships in natural and civil states. The author of the article argues that although Hobbes does not imagine a social contract that includes irrational plants and animals, there is a possibility in his political system to represent the interests of nature, and to create environmental policy taking into account the role of the Hobbesian sovereignty in civil society.
