Citizenship and the Environment

Více o knize

Exploring the intersection of citizenship and environmentalism, Andrew Dobson presents a groundbreaking theory termed 'post-cosmopolitan' citizenship. He critiques traditional liberal and civic republican views, emphasizing that ecological citizenship extends beyond rights to include non-reciprocal duties. These responsibilities arise from the unequal ecological footprint of individuals and communities. By framing ecological citizenship in this way, Dobson highlights the moral obligations we hold toward those affected by unsustainable practices, offering a fresh perspective on civic engagement in environmental issues.
