homocentric
Sharing one center
Homocentric means having the same center, describing circles or spheres that share a common central point—synonymous with concentric.
In a different sense, homocentric means human-centered, treating humanity as the central concern or measure of all things: a homocentric worldview that places human interests above all else.
This second meaning parallels anthropocentric.
