With the continuous development of modern civilization and industrial society,capitalist society is faced with a series of difficulties and ecological crisis,the root cause of which is the wanton expansion of economic rationality,which not only affects capital and market,but also seriously affects commodities and production relations,making the whole capitalist society tends to alienation.With the continuous expansion of economic rationality,human beings have abundant material wealth.However,driven by pure economic rationality,human beings pursue the maximization of interests and gain economic benefits at the expense of the natural ecological environment,which violates the basic laws of nature and leads to ecological crisis and environmental deterioration.Faced with these serious threats to human survival,people have explored many solutions and ways,and built a variety of ecological theories,such as ecological Marxism,ecological socialism in a narrow sense,"green" ecologism,and so on.As an "existential Marxist",Andre Gauz believes that in order to solve the current predicament and crisis of capitalism,It is necessary to adopt some principles and propositions of socialism to guide the transcendence of capitalism,so as to change the current situation of environmental deterioration and resource plunder.Based on the basic theories and thoughts of ecological Marxism,Gortzky first analyzed the fundamental causes of the predicament and crisis of capitalist society,criticized the expansion of economic rationality,and then proposed the solution to the dilemma of "transcending capitalism".Finally,he believed that the realization of this transcendent must be guided by some socialist thoughts and principles.Taking the critical theory of economic rationality as the core,he tried to explore ways and methods to transcend capitalism.Taking realistic individuals as the starting point,he tried to transcend capitalism through individual liberation and labor liberation.These theories not only sharply criticized the social problems at that time,but also put forward a series of specific solutions to "transcend capitalism".At the same time,it also provides certain reference and reference opinions for dealing with the problems facing our socialist modernization construction.Therefore,using the method of literature research,the method of history and logic and the dialectical method to analyze and study Gaudz’s "beyond capitalism" theory,not only discusses the concrete measures of its realization way,but also analyzes the practical feasibility of its theory.The study of these viewpoints is of great significance and value for us to have a deep understanding and understanding of ecological Marxism,which is conducive to understanding the forward-looking thought of Gauz,and also has a revelatory significance for solving the ecological crisis under the modern industrial society.Meanwhile,as a rapidly developing socialist modern country。...
