Description
Summary:<p>This chapter offers one passing presentation of the goal that the O&ntilde;ati workshop set out towards. It is an attempt to draw together threads of philosophy, doctrine, policy, praxis and activism as an uneven thread in a far wider, urgent conversation bringing human rights and the environment into a new relationship. This new relationship necessarily requires, as I argue below, a radical worldview transformation inaugurating a new &lsquo;human&rsquo; subjectivity and, inseparably, a new socio-juridical imaginary reflecting a new vision of &lsquo;the world&rsquo;.</p> <hr /><p>Este art&iacute;culo ofrece una presentaci&oacute;n del objetivo que se marc&oacute; en el seminario celebrado en O&ntilde;ati. Es un intento por unir aspectos de filosof&iacute;a, doctrina, pol&iacute;tica, pr&aacute;ctica y activismo en un &uacute;nico hilo, ofreciendo una conversaci&oacute;n m&aacute;s amplia y urgente, que establezca una nueva relaci&oacute;n entre los derechos humanos y el medio ambiente. Esta nueva relaci&oacute;n requiere necesariamente, como se argumenta a continuaci&oacute;n, una transformaci&oacute;n radical en la visi&oacute;n del mundo, que d&eacute; paso a una nueva subjetividad &ldquo;humana&rdquo; e, inseparablemente, un nuevo imaginario socio-jur&iacute;dico que refleje una nueva visi&oacute;n &ldquo;del mundo.
