Embracing indigenous metaphors: a new/old way of thinking about sustainability
This paper explores the role of metaphor in cognition, outlining how the machine metaphor came to dominate and the problematic assumptions for culture/nature relationships and the consequences for the environment that underpin this metaphor. It then argues that the machine metaphor needs to be complemented by an animistic metaphor, which embodies and underpins indigenous relationships to nature, using examples from the New Zealand Māori.
