Philosophical contributions

Marder has developed a philosophy of plants.[16] He argues that, while philosophers tend to refrain from raising ontological and ethical concerns with plant life, it is necessary to put this life at the forefront of the deconstruction of Western metaphysics. Marder has also written on the ethical implications of what he calls plant-thinking.[17][18]
