- Title
- Ecoliteracy and metaresponsibility: 'steps to an ecology of mind'
- Author(s)
- Fisher, Frank
- Abstract
- For 25 years the Monash Graduate School of Environmental Science has attempted to teach a critical epistemology as core to its graduate programs. The idea is to provide a complement to the Cartesian world view its students bring with them. It provides a capacity to analyse for the interpretive models upon which phenomena of concern are based and with these models in mind to propose strategies for acting “metaresponsibly” in environment. The intellectual basis of this approach is developed and then applied to a range of current issues. An unusual and liberating set of responses is generated.
