With reference to Paul Ricoeur’s phenomenological work entitled Freedom and Nature: the Voluntary and the Involuntary, the chapter explores the ecological foundations of autonomy through the consideration of human being’s embodied interaction with the natural environment. As grounded upon our dynamic situatedness in the natural world, the development of autonomy will be first analyzed in relation to the fulfillment of vital needs as necessary to sustain the body’s organic life. Then, in continuity with the description of human being’s needfull will, the ecological roots of autonomy will be considered as involved in the process of the body’s decentralization and affective immersion in the natural world.
