The Humanitarian Ecological Journal is addressed to ecologists interested in the world outlook and in philosophical and ethical aspects of nature conservation.
This journal is published three or four times a year and illuminates such issues as ideology, methodology, and philosophy of nature conservation. There are articles on ecological ethics, theology, aesthetics, philosophy, culture, history, psychology, sociology, and political science. The following topics are also discussed: wild nature value, motivation in conservation, philosophical issues of conservation, social issues associated with nature conservation, folk traditions in conservation, modern theories of ecological ethics and in-depth ecology.
The journal aims to promote the development of an eco-centric ideology based on respect for wildlife and a desire to revive spirituality in local nature conservation. This new conservation ideology should have local roots and serve as a means of expressing cultural traditions of local peoples.
The journal is published in Russian and distributed in the CIS, in Baltic states and Western Europe. The circulation is 500 copies; six issues have already been published.
