Philosophy, Complexity, and Environment: Episteme on Contemporary Issues

Abstract

It is necessary to analyze the articulation between the social sciences, natural sciences, legal regulations and complex thinking in pursuit of the hic et nunc concretion of an epistemic community committed to guaranteeing the continuity of the human species and its natural environment (flora and fauna), reducing the causes and aggravating factors of environmental damage, establishing transdisciplinary relationships whose sustenance per se emanates from the complexity and the relationship between the human-natural environment, human interests in environmental problems and the philosophy of environmental policy harmonized between the deep legal contents and the wisdom of ancestral knowledge, without detriment to the technicalities and rhetoric paraphernalia of the Pleiades that play “tails or heads” in an imbricated surrepsive obreption that, with the overthrow of sophistry, a triad emerges between Sumak Kawsay or Good Living, a harmonious relationship between the human being, society and nature; Tikún Olam or integral repair of the world; and Motu Propiro, the architect who manages any change; because if we do not change of our own free will, that change will be insignificant, wrapping any proposal in an infinite spiral of discursive prerogatives.
