"The Misbegotten Child of Deep Ecology"

Avery, Stephen. “The Misbegotten Child of Deep Ecology.” Environmental Values 13, no. 1 (2004): 31–50. doi:10.3197/096327104772444811.

This paper offers a critical examination of efforts to use Heidegger’s thought to illuminate deep ecology. It argues that deep ecology does not entail a non-anthropocentric or ecocentric environmental ethic; rather, it is best understood as offering an ontological critique of the current environmental crisis, from a perspective of deep anthropocentrism.
