自然、社会和自我这三个相互关联的维度受到侵蚀,这是费利克斯·瓜塔里(Felix Guattari)所说的一体化世界资本主义(IWC)的后果。在南非,自然、社会和自我的侵蚀也是几个世纪的殖民主义和几十年的种族隔离的结果。在这篇论文中,我希望探讨非洲的乌班图哲学(人性),它似乎是人类中心主义,如何被用来促进三个生态的愈合——社会的愈合如何可能横向影响自然和自我的愈合。我的理论探索与南非的教育有关,因为国家课程政策的要求是本土知识系统构成所有学校学习领域/科目的话语领域的一部分。
The erosion of the three interlocking dimensions of nature, society and self is the consequence of what Felix Guattari referred to as integrated world capitalism (IWC). In South Africa the erosion of nature, society and self is also the consequence of centuries of colonialism and decades of apartheid. In this paper I wish to explore how the African philosophy of ubuntu (humanness), which appears to be anthropocentric, might be invoked to contribute to the healing of the three ecologies—how healing of the social might transversally effect healing of nature and the self. My theoretical exploration has relevance to education in South Africa, given that a mandate of national curriculum policy is that indigenous knowledge systems form part of the discursive terrains of all school learning areas/subjects.
