"Mobile Wall" represents the period between the latest issue available in JSTOR and the latest journal. The moving wall is usually expressed in terms of age. In rare cases, since the issuer selected the "zero" mobile wall, the current problem will be made public on JSTOR as soon as it is issued.

For example, if the current year is 2008 and the journal has a 5 year moving frame, you can get the 2002 article.

Max Oelschlaeger (1995), an editor of post-modern environmental ethics, recognizes "linguistic transformation" in modern ethical considerations. Languages ​​are no longer considered as reflecting the real world, and languages ​​can not be separated from human personal time and space culture. Language is not a representative of independent reality, it is the role of "appearance of individuals" in defining the "meaningful world of man". Humans are "biologically uncertain" and culturally motivated than previously thought. The ecological crisis has been derived from and supported by the concept of older languages. Oelschlaeger claims post-modern language consciousness and believes that "modern ethical theory is simple in language" (p. 2-9). He condemns the separation of theory and practice, and first of all advocated a new cultural language of environmental sustainability.

Since the decade has come to an end, environmental issues are constantly emerging in the public consciousness, and the need for sound environmental ethics has become stronger. The problem of ecological sustainability has emerged on every continent, and the scale of human activity is beginning to threaten the ease of living of the earth (Brown and Postel, 1987). Over the years these needs and the insights of many people have created an ecologically sound morality that can be used to see the Earth that needs to be accepted. This ethics arises from many traditions and different backgrounds. Prior to the settlement in Europe, environmental ethics existed in the American tradition. They believe that humans are only a part of nature. I believe they need to respect nature and share it with others on the planet. For them, all lives are sacred and it is also land.
