Objectives
This is a free choice subject within bachelor degree studies in Philosophy and serves as a subsidiary subject in many humanities, science and social science fields.
Contents
This subject is concerned with how the interplay between nature users and nature resources has an influence on the resource base and the environment. The course will explore how different methods of working, different forms of political, administrative, social and economical organization, cultural features and different forms of understanding have an effect on the harvesting and preservation of natural resources. The conditions for sustainable development will be expounded in this context. The significance of the resources users'' cultural and local connections will be brought into play here, especially in the light of the increasing new liberalistic globalization. These outlined perspectives will be contextualized in connection with human values and priorities, so that the individual''s relationship with him/herself, with other people, with the surroundings and to nature will be central themes.
