Human attunement with ecological principles: A conceptual framework for sustainable development

A number of theories claim that similarities exist between human communities and ecosystems, and that from them we can learn how to live sustainably. Yet, at the behavioral level, the relationship between practicing sustainable behaviors and living in accordance with ecological principles has been b...

Yet, at the behavioral level, the relationship between practicing sustainable behaviors and living in accordance with ecological principles has been barely studied. This paper addresses such potential relationship, based on the idea that acting in accordance with ecological principles requires the knowledge of them but also an affinity towards those principles, and behaving accordingly (i.e., acting sustainably). We call this hypothetical relation the Human Attunement with Ecological Principles (HAEP), and assume that it implies the presence of a human predisposition to knowing, valuing and applying these principles. In developing this idea, the paper reviews relevant literature, aiming to find evidence that supports the HAEP hypothesis, describing in detail every ecological principle, explaining its relationship with sustainable development and how those principles might be addressed from a psychological standpoint. Diversas teorías afirman que existen similitudes entre las comunidades humanas y los ecosistemas, y que de éstos últimos podemos aprender cómo vivir sustentablemente; sin embargo, a nivel conductual la posible relación entre la práctica de conductas sustentables y el vivir de acuerdo con los principios ecológicos ha sido poco estudiada. El presente artículo aborda dicha potencial relación, a partir de la siguiente idea: para actuar en concordancia con los principios ecológicos, es necesario conocerlos, pero también desplegar afinidad por ellos, es decir, valorarlos positivamente, para después aplicarlos, comportándonos de manera sustentable. A esta posible disposicionalidad psicológica la hemos denominado Sintonía Humana con los Principios Ecológicos (SHPE), la cual implicaría la existencia de una predisposición humana para conocer, valorar y aplicar esos principios. Con el objetivo de fundamentar la idea, en el presente trabajo se revisa la literatura relevante, en busca de indicios que apoyen la hipótesis de la existencia de la SHPE, describiendo con detalle cada uno de los principios ecológicos, explicando su relación con el desarrollo sustentable y la manera en que se podrían abordar estos principios desde la psicología.
