| Résumé : | The environmental debate is part of a large genealogy of thought and is integrated in a natural and socio-historical context that are not neutrals. There is no unique vision about the relationship between human and nature. Moreover, there is a multitude of considerations that oscillate between opposite poles. This variation arises from the classic dichotomy between man and nature but also from the old philosophic debate between monism and dualism or between holism and reductionism. To give meaning to this multiplication of focus, we can refer to the notion of "discourse". A discourse is a particular way to represent reality, it is a shared way of apprehending the world that construct meaning and relationships (Dryzek 2005). To characterize these discourses, we will distinguish two paradigms: the systemic paradigm and the dualistic paradigm. |
