Abstract

The work by Enrique Leff lead us to think through the emergence of ecological thinking, referring to the social, economic, and political changes that have taken place in society, especially concerning the increased production of technological innovations through scientific knowledge. Such changes depict environmental degradation arising from a crisis of knowledge, with excessive appreciation of absolute, unquestionable, fragmented knowledge, which subsumed environmental issues, the relation between human beings and the environment and nature. The spillover of knowledge has produced and it still produces an emptying of existential senses of human beings, denying the otherness constructed through social relations and issues of being in time and history.
