环境哲学:现代的抑或后现代的OA

This paper is the author's self-narrative of thought.The first part outlines the key points of modernist philosophy:physicalist view of nature;reductionist methodology;dogmatic rationalist epistemology;subject-object dualist axiology;individualist political philosophy;materialist values.The second part elaborates on the key points of environmental philosophy:vitalist view of nature;complementary methodology of reductionism and holism;humble rationalist epistemology;agency-based axiology;communitarian political philosophy;non-materialist values.The third part argues that environmental philosophy remains modern rather than postmodern,in other words,the correction that environmental philosophy makes to modern philosophy is a self-correction within modernity,rather than a move toward postmodernity;it points out that the core belief of modernity is that the progress of public reason can lead to comprehensive social progress;public reason is what Kant referred to as the public use of reason;the public use of reason is manifested in scientific and democratic theory and practice;postmodernism has failed to provide options superior to modernity.
