生态人文科学

Ecological Humanities

生态人文科学是一种新的科学范式出现的征兆。生态人文科学是20世纪90年代晚期出现的一种趋势,依托于后人文主义对人类中心论、欧洲中心论和西方科学的批判。传统生态学知识、本土知识和生物人文科学的发展,是生态人文科学的重要内容。其中,生物人文科学是一种包容性的知识类型,将人文科学、社会科学和生命科学联系起来。生态人文科学提供了一种理想的元共同体观念。这个元共同体由人类与非人类构成,其基础是共同实质的亲缘关系、共生关联、协同进化和互相依赖。生态人文科学还从心灵延展和分布式认知角度预期了未来的知识建构。

The article will define and identify features of the ecological humanities understood as a symptom of the emergence of a new scientific paradigm. I am interested particularly in ecoposthumanities - a tendency that is developing since the late nineties in the frame of posthumanist criticism of anthropocentrism, Eurocentrism and Western science. The paper will indicate the role of tradi-tional ecological knowledges and native knowledges as well as the development of biohumanities （an inclusive type of knowledge that connects human, social sciences and life sciences） as important aspects of ecoposthumanities. The ecological humanities offers an uto-pian vision of metacommunities of humans and non - humans based on co - substantial kinships f symbiotic relations, co - evolution and co - dependency and anticipates future knowledge building in terms of extended mind and distributed cognition.
