The connections between ecological and human health

Meer over het boek

The essay critiques traditional inquiries into the nature of connections between human and ecological health, arguing for a shift from a naïve realistic-ontological perspective to a linguistic-constructivist approach. It emphasizes that connections are not inherent but constructed through cultural and technological contexts. By examining how different authors articulate these connections, the essay explores the semantic nuances of terms like "human health" and "ecological health," highlighting the importance of understanding their usage within the academic community.
