The covenantal interface comes to the fore

Dualism, the recognition of a place for the economic order as well as a place for the ecological order, is intrinsically covenantal. It situates the decision matrix in the intersection of the divine and the mundane rather than entirely in the divine or entirely in the mundane. For that covenantal interface to come to the fore it is important for the mortal side of the covenant to have a sense of its own dignity and thus its own responsibility for the administration of and the defense of the keeping of and the going in the path of and the respecting of the boundary of the divine allotments.
