[Thee coethical thought of Robert Spaemann: ethics of benevolence and the care of the natural world].

In this work we intend to show the reflections of the contemporary philosopher Robert Spaemann in what refers to ecology. For this reason, in first place, I will make use of the fundamental ethical category of his thought (benevolent love), as extensible also to the natural world. Following that, I will propose a universal hierarchy of the benevolent love in the ordo amoris. Once we have talked about how to extend this rational love to all beings, I will present Spaemann's view of the world based on two interests of the reason: one dominative and the other one contemplative. To end, I will explain the concept of Mitsein as a proposal for our interaction with the surrounding world.
