The Ecosocial World of Education
The recognition of human-caused environmental crises has increased the need to think and act in a way that bridges the ecosocial realities of humans and the rest of nature. Therefore, this theoretical article challenges the anthropocentric assumption of human social life and communication. We formulate an educational philosophy on the nature of sociality, that recognizes the intertwining of human and other realities, and we ask how this kind of m…
Building bridges across species
Empathy, the ability to recognize and resonate with the experiences of others, is essential for prosocial behaviors and moral agency. It’s an evolved ability, which can also be cultivated through education. Empathy is a strong predictor of pro-environmental attitudes and action, indicating its role in multispecies prosociality. In this theoretical article, I focus on the interspecies and epistemic dimensions of empathy. Founded on Edith Stein’s p…
Ecosocial Autonomy as an Educational Ideal
Autonomy – or rational self-control – is not only fashionable as an educational ideal, but also in present-day economics, ethics, and society in general. However, the concept of traditional autonomy is problematic because it privileges humans and treats the rest of nature primarily as resources fit only for human exploitation. This anthropocentrism has led human beings to see themselves as superior to nature and separate. Ecosocial autonomy is an…
Recognizing Ecosocialization in Childhood Memories
Western modernity has shaped people’s thought patterns and value hierarchies, relegating humans to the position of supremacy. This anthropocentric worldview has disconnected humans from the rest of nature and eventually led to the social and ecological catastrophe. This paper shows that collective memory work can help us recognize how we are always socialized within and by human communities and also already ecosocialized within and by the rest of…
Ecosocialization – an Ecological Turn in the Process of Socialization
This paper describes a conceptual extension of the socialization process and its implications for education. The motivation to the coining of ecosocialization comes from a recent turn in different branches of science, which forces us to problematize the anthropocentric view of life. The theoretical analysis combines the frameworks of phenomenology and ecology. Phenomenology emphasizes perception and experience to remind us that we exist in the wo…
