| It thus promises to take us beyond the Nature-Society dualism organising both previous Marxian work on nature and versions of bourgeois technocentrism and radical ecocentrism. |
| Ecocentrism considers nature to have its own aims. |
| What is, however, worth emphasising is that at one level the differences between technocentrism and ecocentrism are more apparent than real. |
| Ecocentrism is preferred, from an evolutionary point of view, as ecosystems form the basic units of nature and the matrices in which humans and animals evolve. |
| This was one of the crowning moments paving the way for ecocentrism. |
| Ecocentrism is easily deformed, misunderstood and misinterpreted. |
