摘要

As argued at the beginning of this work, a conflictive vision of humans and nonhumans seems to remain more alive in contemporary ecological politics than it seems at first glance. The dualism of perspectives that we could consider typically anthropocentric is, indeed, quite easy to capture. Discourses such as what John Dryzek characterizes of Prometheans in their attempt to guarantee unlimited growth, or the managerial attempts of optimization of resources under a scheme of utility maximization seem to presuppose agents that approach nonhuman nature as something exterior, totally available for human use.
