Abstract
To the question “Must the economic future be like the past?” this paper offers in reply a philosophical perspective on the ecological costs of mass tourism and, in turn, a prospective remedy as a hedge against the recurrence of ecodamages. Admitting the signs of ecological spoliation due to mass tourism, it points out the likely symptoms of the human disposition breeding these ill effects and then lays claim to a deep-seated metaphysics as the cause of these symptoms and, ultimately, this bionomic abuse. As a remedy for this dispositional disorder and the dire consequences following from it, the paper argues for moral constraints issuing from the reaffiliation of the human psyche with nature; but short of this natural alignment, which is the optimum course of reparation, it seconds legal constraints as a temporary means of controlling ‘incorrigible’ human dispositions and as a justifiable process for seeking redress of grievances.
