From Anthropocentrism to Ecocentrism: Philosophical Anthropology in the Age of Climate Challenges
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This article explores the transformation of philosophical anthropology under the influence of global environmental challenges, particularly climate change. The focus is on rethinking the anthropocentric paradigm that has dominated Western tradition and transitioning to an ecocentric worldview. The paper analyzes the concepts of the intrinsic value of nature, intergenerational justice, and global responsibility, including the ethical implications of decisions made at the Conference of the Parties (COP-29) in Baku. Special attention is given to the synthesis of philosophical, political, and technological approaches in shaping sustainable climate strategies. The article emphasizes the need to incorporate philosophical reflection into climate policy development and formulates principles of environmental ethics focused on the future of humanity and nature.
