摘要

在支持气候减缓的努力中，恐惧的生态已经成为一种常见的修辞。崩溃论是一个极端的版本，它断言世界的崩溃不可避免。于是，恐惧变成了刺激行动的终极情感。在本文中，借鉴实用主义者约翰·杜威的工作，我们表明，恐惧是一种模棱两可的情绪。杜威强调情感的性质。根据他的推理，本文区分了强烈恐惧和适度恐惧。强烈的恐惧会消灭行动，而适度的恐惧则满足了一种有质量的情感的条件(在杜威的意义上)，它使行动成为可能。由于这个原因，崩溃的论点必须被拒绝，而恐惧的生态，利用适度的恐惧，可能会得到维持。

The Ecology of Fear and Climate Change: A Pragmatist Point of View

The ecology of fear has become a common rhetoric in efforts to support climate mitigation. The thesis of the collapse is an extreme version, asserting the inevitable collapse of the world. Fear, then, becomes the ultimate emotion for spurring action. In this article, drawing on the work of the pragmatist John Dewey, we show that fear is an ambiguous emotion. Dewey stressed the quality of an emotion. Following his reasoning, this article draws a distinction between intense and moderate fear. Intense fear annihilates action, while moderate fear fulfils the conditions for an emotion of quality (in the Deweyan sense), which enables action. For this reason, the thesis of the collapse must be rejected, while an ecology of fear, drawing on moderate fear, may be maintained.

期刊介绍： Environmental Values is an international peer-reviewed journal that brings together contributions from philosophy, economics, politics, sociology, geography, anthropology, ecology and other disciplines, which relate to the present and future environment of human beings and other species. In doing so we aim to clarify the relationship between practical policy issues and more fundamental underlying principles or assumptions.
