This chapter discusses the conception of alienation from nature, and argues that such a conception would be helpful in thinking about environmental questions and their relations to political and social ones. It also examines the implications of Marx’s account for the question of alienation from nature and for environmental philosophy in general.
Keywords: alienation, nature, Marx, environmental philosophy, philosophy
