The nub of the restorationist critique of environmental preservationism is the claim that it rests on an unhealthy dualism that conceives nature and humankind as radically distinct and opposed to each other. The crucial question about the restorationist outlook has to do with the degree to which the restorationist program is itself faithful to its first principle: that nature and humanity are fundamentally united rather than separate.
Rejecting the old domination model, which sees humans as over nature, restoration theory champions a model of community participation. Yet, some of the descriptions of what restorationists are actually up to—for example, Turner’s description of humans as “the lords of creation,” or Jordan’s statement that “the fate and well being of the biosphere depend ultimately on us and our relationship with it”—do not cohere well with the community participation model. Another holistic model—namely, that of nature as an organism—might be more serviceable to the restorationists. As with the community model, the “organic” model pictures nature as a system of interconnected parts. A fundamental difference, however, is that in an organism the parts are wholly subservient to the life of the organism.
