Produktbeschreibung
For many years the environment has been treated as a free commodity, but it has become clear that we cannot continue to exploit the environment without incurring great costs for our as well as future generations. "Why Posterity Matters" is the first comprehensive philosophical examination that explores our duties to future generations. It raises moral questions about intergenerational distribution or the relations between people who live in different times.
"Why Posterity Matters" argues that our obligations to our progency are a matter of "justice" and that we must consider them when we make decisions which effect their environment. The arguement extends from a communitarian' theory which states that the concept of a transgenerational community--one which extends from the past to the future--is not only morally desirable but justifys a belief in our obligations to future generations. In "Why Posterity Matters" Dr. de-Shalit sets forwardthe idea that the theory of intergenerational justice is not only a possibility, but that it must serve as the moral basis for our environmental policies.
