Perspectivism and Ecologism

The abstraction of Agency from Perspectivism entails the abstraction from the possibility of one modifying one's World.  It also entails abstractions from these possibilities: that one can modify the World of another, that another can modify one's World, that in collaboration, modified Worlds can converge.  Absent these possibilities, the absurd consequence that a single offspring is actually two children, one per parent, follows.  Thus, most generally, Perspectivism abstracts from an Ecological concept of a Species adapting an Environment to its purposes, i. e. of collective World- modification.  On that basis, the original Perspectivist Subject-World concatenation is revealed as a condition of a Member of a Species as both isolated and passive in relation to the Environment of the Species.  Accordingly, the adoption of Perspectivism can be a first step from the Individualist Epistemology that dominates Modern Philosophy, to Ecologism.
