                   Summary 
                    
                   Deep ecology is an important vision in environmental philosophy. It criticizes and 
                   rethinks many aspects and deep connections of modern technocratic-industrial societies 
                   between humans and nature. It probes the true values of human life and the rational 
                   reconstruction of contemporary societies. After the mid-1980s, deep ecology swiftly 
                   became a leading force of radical environments in the environmental movements. 
                    
                   Identification is a core concept that makes deep ecology a version. The ultimate norm of 
                        UNESCO – EOLSS
                   “self-realization” is a process of widening and deepening identification with other 
                   individuals or beings. The idea is based on modern ecological science and largely 
                   absorbs Eastern and Western cultural thoughts. Therefore, the idea has more rationality 
                   than others.  SAMPLE CHAPTERS
                    
                   The appearance of deep ecology is an important turn from reformist environmental 
                   thinking to the radical. It is a turning point from anthropocentric mechanisms to 
                   ecocentric holism. As an important part of the postmodern worldview, deep ecology 
                   provides a new approach for the theory of sustainable development. This article 
                   provides views on “self-realization,” values between individuals and wholeness, the 
                   scientific basis, and the ecological strategies in different countries and regions.

                1.1. What Is Deep Ecology? 
                 
                Deep ecology is a philosophy, and a postmodern philosophical worldview. The term 
                deep ecology was coined by Arne Naess in his 1973 article “The shallow and the deep, 
                long-range ecology movement.” The essence of deep ecology is to keep asking further 
                questions about human life, society, and nature. Naess points out “the subjective ‘deep’ 
                stresses that we ask why and how, where others do not. For instance, ecology, as a 
                science, does not ask what kind of a society would be the best for maintaining a 
                particular ecosystem—that is considered a question for value theory, for politics, for 
                ethics.” issues, such as natural view and value view; political and ethical issues.
