In the essay the author addresses some of the central issues at stake in Hwa Yol Jung's project of geophilosophy as it moves out from what he has come to call "the Great Chain of Ecological Interbeing." The author concludes with a discussion of two consequences following from Jung's project, namely a call for a discussion of the principle markers of geophilosophical self-identity and a move toward a postnational politics of cosmopolitan world democracy.
