The Continuity of Nature and Experience: John Dewey's Pragmatic Environmentalism2003 •

Hugh McDonald has been a highly productive scholar and his work seems to me not to have attracted all the recognition that it deserves. As I discuss in this review, this book of McDonald's is valuable in clearing away several myths and misunderstandings about pragmatism and intrinsic value, and it really deserves to have more impact accordingly.

and Keywords Though environmental philosophers trace the roots of environmental awareness to the decades of John Dewey's prominence, Dewey himself was conspicuously mum about the environmental controversies of his day. A Deweyan environmental pragmatism, then, must find sustenance in less prosaically environmental themes of the American philosopher's project. This chapter attends to Dewey's notion of organism-environment interaction, which is at the core of Dewey's understanding of experience and which in forms Dewey's philosophy from epistemology to aesthetics. The chapter stresses that Dewey's notion of organism-environment interaction is an account of how organisms dy namically respond to changes in their environment. However, contrary to several misin terpretations of environmental pragmatism, this dynamic responsiveness is not a call for human control over nature. Indeed, we conclude that an environmental philosophy orient ed by Dewey's notion of organism-environment interaction provides promising approach es to interdisciplinarity, transdisciplinarity, and environmental justice.

Philosophies of environmental education and democracy: Harris, Dewey, and Bateson on human freedoms in nature2016 •

"""Purpose – This conceptual paper aims to explore ecoliteracy in education as originated in Fritjof Capra's ongoing efforts to foster ecological awareness through schools. Future leaders as ecoliterate will have developed an enhanced perception, a sense of value-judgment in experience and sustainable self and other relations. Design/methodology/approach – The argument is supported by contemporary science of the complementary pairs as based on coordination dynamics. Findings – The paper presents Capra's work positioning it alongside new “transdisciplinary education”. The paper argues for the critical examination of the particular structure of knowledge able to inform/develop ecoliteracy, as well as of the nature of educational leadership. Originality/value – The paper revisits John Dewey's philosophy and his pragmatic inquiry as especially significant for developing ecological thinking and presents his method of deliberation as remarkably similar to “imaginative narrative”, one of the methodologies of futures studies.

Is the concept of "intrinsic value" defensible? No. My project is three-fold: First is to show how some philosopher’s use of the language of intrinsic value is premised on faulty metaphysical assumptions that ordinary use reveals simply as an expression of moral commitment to non-human nature. Second is to demonstrate that at the root of this confusion lay deeply faulty assumptions about what language users are, namely, creatures such as ourselves whose somatic, perceptual, and epistemic conditions are informed by our species membership. In our own case what this means is that our points of view are anthropocentric or human-centered. Mistakenly understood by many environmentalists to refer to a value centered on human interests, I’ll argue that anthropocentrism is better understood epistemically, that is, as referring to the specific configuration of perceptual, psychological, cognitive, emotive, and somatic capacities that describe membership in Homo sapiens uniquely. Once we see that anthropocentrism is not a value, but rather a description of human perspective and experience, we can initiate a conceptual divorce from the chauvinism or instrumental self-interest that describes our present attitude towards the environment. Our experience, in other words, is inescapably human-centered, our values have been but need not be chauvinistic. Once, then, intrinsic value is deprived of its opposition, that is, once human-centeredness is revealed as a description of human being and not necessarily as an instrument determined to environmental excess, its oppositional metaphysics collapses. Are we then left without a foundation upon which to ground environmental responsibility? No; the dissolution of intrinsic value leaves no important lacuna in its wake, but in fact clarifies the extent to which creatures capable of creating and attributing value are responsible for those actions that invoke it. What an appeal to John Dewey will show is that all of the elements we need to craft a workable environmental ethic are available in a clearer understanding of human-centeredness and it’s implications for human experience.

This essay reclaims elements of John Dewey's theory of democratic public education in order to articulate the philosophical bases for initiating academic and community programs that will address the problem of post-industrial urban contamination. Deweyan environmental pragmatism is especially appropriate for this purpose because it is naturalistic, socially progressive, and association-centered. Human intelligence is the basic bio-cultural good of his democratic method of social reconstruction. Free inquiry in the academy alone is insufficient to ensure that increases in scientific knowledge will foster democratic intelligence. It is also necessary to create institutions and community-based associations that can disseminate expert knowledge and empower citizens to participate in the process of social problem-solving. Contrary to common philosophical objections, it is argued that pragmatism's favored forms of "civic environmentalism" are neither essentially pro-indu...
