Ecological justice
Abstract
This article develops the concept of ecological justice explaining its characteristics and main differences from the environmental justice and justice with animals. With this aim, the paper delimits the scope and content of each model of justice taking as reference their relations with the anthropocentric, biocentric and ecocentric approaches. From this, the work seeks to present a classification of the main proposals that the political philosophy has elaborated on the relationship of the human being and nature, including its translations in the world of law. Finally, from the comparative study, the article defends the hypothesis that ecological justice needs to be articulated, alongside the environmental justice, as a necessary complement in the urgent work of Nature preservation.
