Nature management: kill and care. Reflections on the origins of a controversy / Finn Lynge.
Title: | Nature management: kill and care. Reflections on the origins of a controversy / Finn Lynge. |
Author(s): | Lynge, Finn. |
Date: | 1999. |
Publisher: | Aldershot: Ashgate Publishing Company |
In: | Dependency, autonomy, sustainability in the Arctic. (1999.), |
Abstract: | Describes modern "Manichaean" attitude to nature, opposed to Christian one given to St Peter and believed by Christians until recently. Animal meat is seen as defiling. Whale conservationists see animal as "holy" though avoiding the word. Animal skin versus fake fur is another simplification; synthetics factories pour out pollutants which can poison polar animals or make them infertile. Author appeals for real dialogue between sides in present argument, with appeal to two basic patterns in nature itself. |
