Abstract

In this article I will highlight some of the most harmful consequences of Covid-19 with respect to interpersonal relationships. I will argue that, as in a pandemic period, it is fear that continues to guide these relationships, and it is urgent to enter into a dynamic of reconciliation for the real healing of humanity. Furthermore, I will defend the need for an ecology of relationships so that the common good can be a reality. Interpersonal relationships and, inherently, the authenticity of human nature are crucial for an integral ecology, since it takes into account both human nature and natural nature. Thus, it will not be possible to think about safeguarding ecosystems, or even safeguarding the planet, if this reflection is not based on the truth of the human essence and on how human action – inside and outside the pandemic context – determines and shapes the reality in which we are inserted and of which we are part.

超越恐惧的生活:作为共同利益基础的关系生态学
在这篇文章中,我将强调 Covid-19 对人际关系造成的一些最有害的后果。我将论证,正如在大流行病时期一样,是恐惧继续引导着这些人际关系,为了真正治愈人类,迫切需要进入一种和解的动态。此外,我还将为人际关系生态学的必要性辩护,从而使共同利益成为现实。人与人之间的关系,以及从本质上讲,人类本性的真实性,对于整体生态学来说至关重要,因为它既考虑到了人类本性,也考虑到了自然本性。因此,如果这种思考不是基于人类本质的真实性,不是基于人类的行动--在大流行病范围内外--如何决定和塑造我们置身其中并成为其中一部分的现实,就不可能思考保护生态系统,甚至保护地球的问题。
