Abstract

Accounts of grounded normativity in Indigenous philosophy can be used to challenge the groundlessness of Western environmental ethical approaches such as Aldo Leopold’s land ethic. Attempts to ground normativity in mainstream Western ethical theory deploy a metaphorical grounding that covers up the literal grounded normativity of Indigenous philosophical practices. Furthermore, Leopold’s land ethic functions as a form of settler philosophical guardianship that works to erase, assimilate, and effectively silence localized Indigenous knowledges through a delocalized ethical standard. Finally, grounded normativ­ity challenges settlers to question their desire for groundless normative theory and practice as reflective of their evasion of ethical responsibility for the destruction and genocide of Indigenous communities.

隐喻和文字基础
土著哲学中有根据的规范性可以用来挑战西方环境伦理方法的无根据,比如奥尔多·利奥波德的土地伦理。试图将规范性根植于西方主流伦理理论,采用了一种隐喻的基础,掩盖了本土哲学实践的字面规范性。此外,利奥波德的土地伦理作为一种定居者哲学监护的形式,通过一种非本地化的伦理标准,抹去、同化并有效地使本地化的土著知识沉默。最后,有根据的规范要求定居者质疑他们对无根据的规范理论和实践的渴望,因为这反映了他们逃避对土著社区的破坏和种族灭绝的道德责任。
