Relations

  • Anthropocentrism: Ecocentrism is an environmental ethic that extends inherent value to entire ecosystems and the biosphere, in contrast to anthropocentrism’s focus on human beings.
  • Antihumanism: Ecocentrism values ecological wholes over individual humans, which can align with antihumanist perspectives.
  • Deep Ecology: Deep ecology promotes an ecocentric perspective, which places the entire ecosystem at the center of ethical consideration.
