About the Author 27$
If the natural environment is in the precarious state to which many attest, what would
this demand of us? What duties are suggested by the observation that our collective
behavior threatens the planet, even if no particular individual intends harm? Can we
legitimately ask those who sincerely hold little or no interest in the long-term viability
of the earth’s ecosphere to value it in the same way as committed environmentalists
do—and to act accordingly? In The Moral Weight of Ecology: Public Goods, Cooperative
Duties, and Environmental Politics, Edward Tverdek engages these questions and ulti-
mately argues that the demands of ecology upon all of us are in fact quite substantial.
This book is not, however, another study in environmental ethics, examining what, if
anything, we owe the natural world. Rather, The Moral Weight of Ecology addresses the
matter from the perspective of political economy and social choice theory.
Tverdek seeks to disarm both the intuitive libertarian notion that no one should be
compelled to “value” and contribute toward something for which they have litde
regard as well as the romantic environmentalist assertion that one cannot assign an
economic value to nature. We must in some way “price” the natural world, Tverdek
argues, but how we do so necessarily depends on what we believe would be a fair way
to distribute the costs and burdens of maintaining it, and these moral beliefs must be
antecedent to the consumer preferences economists consider the “raw data” for deter-
mining the value of the environment. |
