Abstract(s)
Esta investigação assume a teoria da ética aristotélica e, partindo dela, pretende-se reinterpretar alguns conceitos clássicos gregos no contexto da contemporânea Ética Ambiental, de modo a compreender o modo como o ser humano deve ser e agir relativamente ao ambiente. Deste modo, a revitalização da Ética das Virtudes, com inspiração em Aristóteles, terá como foco principal a análise da constituição do caráter do ser humano, bem como a associação do conceito de virtude para o seu desenvolvimento, de modo a que se torne um ser virtuoso e feliz. Será importante, então, repensar e reavaliar os resultados que as ações humanas trazem para a natureza, não focando a ideia de que se deve agir apenas pelo cumprimento de deveres ou obrigações, mas também a partir da boa constituição de disposições de caráter virtuosas no ser humano. Para tal, iremos debruçar-nos, essencialmente, no pensamento de Ronald Sandler, que apresenta uma proposta pluralista moderada associada à Ética Ambiental das Virtudes. É uma proposta que permite conduzir o ser humano a comportar-se de modo a que o seu caráter seja beneficiado, bem como enriquecer a sua forma de ser e agir bem ambientalmente.
ABSTRACT: The present research adopts the theory of Aristotelian ethics and, based on it, aims to reinterpret some classical Greek concepts in the context of contemporary Environmental Ethics, in order to understand how human beings should be and act in what concerns the environment. In this way, the revitalization of Aristotle-inspired Virtue Ethics will mainly focus on the analysis of the composition of the human character, as well as on the association of the concept of virtue to human development, so that humans can become virtuous and happy beings. It will thus be important to rethink and re-evaluate the impact of human actions on nature, not focusing on the idea that we should act only according to the implementation and fulfillment of our duties or obligations, but rather on the most favourable composition of the virtuous dispositions of the human character. For this purpose, we will pay particular attention to Ronald Sandler’s work, as he presents a moderate pluralistic proposal associated to Environmental Virtue Ethics. His proposal allows human beings to behave in a manner that not only benefits their character but also enriches their way of being and of acting in a more environmentally friendly manner.
