摘要:Ecological crisis is one of the major worries at 21st century. The ecological
damages already caused are severe, and many species including human beings are facing
serious challenge to survive. The cross-cultural worldviews could be a promising approach
to solve this global problem. Every culture reflects some core values but we need to
recognize and consider them. A comparison between cultures shed more lights since in
this way we can learn and rectify our own values. The relation between self and nature is
pre-historical, exists before the civilization begins. However, new knowledge and
technology interrupted this relation throughout the history and as a result catastrophic
events increased. This paper analyzes self-nature relation in the Western and Eastern
cultural traditions. It argues that the common cultural value ‘identification’ can be
demonstrated to build up a harmonious co-existence with nature.
