Abstract

Abstract The planetary crisis that we face today is not only a result of human-induced environmental degradation, but also of a deep crisis of meaning and value in human existence. In consequence, this article will demonstrate the value of phenomenology towards the existential paradigm within green criminology and its importance to overcome a lived experience that is opposed to the planet’s ecological balance. The article will present Martin Heidegger’s phenomenology through his conception of ‘being-here’, which elaborates on the modes of unreflective and unselfconsciousness of everyday existence. This will then be developed into the theory of being-towards-ecocide that is concerned with the meaning of the individual’s encounter with ecocide. Finally, the value of phenomenology as a conceptual tool for the analysis of green crimes and harms will be outlined as a necessary shift towards transcending ecocide and for an existential, theoretical, and systematic construction for the world of everyday life.

从意义到生态灭绝:现象学对绿色犯罪学的价值

我们今天所面临的全球性危机不仅是人类造成的环境退化的结果，而且是人类存在的意义和价值的深刻危机。因此，本文将展示现象学对绿色犯罪学中存在主义范式的价值，以及它对克服与地球生态平衡相反的生活经验的重要性。本文将通过海德格尔的“在此”概念来呈现他的现象学，阐述日常存在的非反思性和非自我意识模式。然后，这将发展成关于个体遭遇生态灭绝的意义的“走向生态灭绝的存在”理论。最后，现象学作为分析绿色犯罪和危害的概念工具的价值将被概述为超越生态灭绝和对日常生活世界的存在主义，理论和系统构建的必要转变。

期刊介绍： Critical Criminology is the official journal of the ASC Division of Critical Criminology. The journal deals with questions of social, political and economic justice. Critical Criminology is for academics and researchers with an interest in anarchistic, cultural, feminist, integrative, Marxist, peace-making, postmodernist and left-realist criminology. The journal does not limit the scope of the inquiry to state definitions of crime and welcomes work focusing on issues of social harm and social justice, including those exploring the intersecting lines of class, gender, race/ethnicity and heterosexism. The journal is of interest for all persons with an interest in alternative methodologies and theories in criminology, including chaos theory, non-linear analysis, and complex systems science as it pertains to the study of crime and criminal justice. The journal encourages works that focus on creative and cooperative solutions to justice problems, plus strategies for the construction of a more inclusive society.
