title = {Two Pillars of the Human Relationship to Nature: Revisiting Capitalism, Science and Technology in Modernity},
year = {2026},
note = {How can the fundamental yet often ambivalent elements of modernity –
capitalism, science and technology – be reconsidered from a
philosophical perspective? Linking contemporary environmental debates
with the philosophy of modernity and deep historical perspectives from
anthropology, V. P. J. Arponen presents a wide-ranging discussion of
the past, present, and future of the human relationship to nature in a
changing world. His guiding thread is the possibility of a value
orientation that charts a course between the excesses of reductive
economic materialism and constructivist culturalism, recentring on the
human capability to live active, meaningful lives.},
