- Title
ECOLOGICAL IMAGINATION IN MORAL EDUCATION, EAST AND WEST.
- Authors
FESMIRE, STEVEN
- Abstract
Relational philosophies developed in classical American pragmatism and the Kyoto School of modern Japanese philosophy suggest aims for greater ecological responsiveness in moral education. To better guide education, we need to know how ecological perception becomes relevant to our deliberations. Our deliberations enlist imagination of a specifically ecological sort when the imaginative structures we use to understand ecosystemic relationships shape our mental simulations and rehearsals. Enriched through crosscultural dialogue, a finely aware ecological imagination can make the deliberations of the coming generation more trustworthy.
