Ökologie der Angst

by Jens Soentgen

En este libro, Jens Soentgen presenta el fenómeno del miedo de los animales salvajes frente a los seres humanos como consecuencia de nuestras salvajes políticas ambientales. Cuando los animales nos ven, huyen corriendo a esconderse. Y aunque nos parezca normal, es un fenómeno extraordinario, sorprendentemente actual. Así lo señala el presente el miedo de los animales frente al ser humano es un distintivo del antropoceno, nuestra era. Y este miedo tiene unas consecuencias negativas ecológicamente significativas. La matanza sistemática de animales por parte de los humanos no solo causa estragos en el equilibrio de los ecosistemas, sino que también transforma y corrompe el comportamiento y hábitos de los supervivientes. /// In this book, Jens Soentgen presents the phenomenon of fear of wild animals in front of humans as a consequence of our wild environmental policies. When animals see us, they run to hide. And although it seems normal to us, it is an extraordinary phenomenon, surprisingly current. The systematic slaughter of animals by humans not only wreaks havoc on the balance of ecosystems, but also transforms and corrupts the behavior and habits of the survivors.
