Economic Thought Of The Early Qin Ecological Interpretation

Human beings pay unprecedented attention to the environment problems and ecological problems because of the global ecology crisis. In order to solve these problems, mankind recollects the mode of traditional ec6nomic increase, the view of nature, the logical thinking, the acknowledge behavior about the world in the western nations. Environment ethics and ecology ethics emerge because of the review. At the same time, ecological ethic thought in Chinese tradition culture is found and approved by the present age scholar. But it is a pity that no scholar realizes the fact that there are rich of ecological genes in the philosophers' economic thought before Qin dynasty. As thus, one hand, it is necessary that human beings should rediscover and realize deeply the Chinese tradition culture including these philosophers' thought by means of an ecological visual angle. On the other hand, mankind ignores the field of these philosophers' economics thought in the process. The paper is generated because of the two factors.Confucianism, Taoist, Mohist, "Guan Zi" and Legalism are the most typical schools in the times before Qin dynasty and are the objects of study in the paper. Every thought including these philosophers' economic thought has its origin and learning background. Philosophical thinking, logic thought, human theory, nature theory and history theory are the origins of these schools. First, the philosophers advocate the wholism, the internal origin theory and organic theory in the field of nature theory. Second, they emphasize the entirety thinking model in the field of logic thought and good at thinking with analogy and series connection. Third, they lay emphasis upon popularizing the morality from human beings to nature and emphasize to use materials reasonably, deal with nature rationally and know stop and content. Because of the feature of these Chinese philosophers' thought, both human beings and nature are full of the smells of humanism. The ecological ethics thought in the philosophers' economic thought theory before Qin dynasty is very profound.The ecological ethics thought of philosophers before Qin dynasty affects their economy thought deeply. There are lots of ecological genes in the philosophers' economic fields including production, consumption, taxation and distribution. In the production field, philosophers before Qin dynasty emphasize the importance of following nature' rule and they also advocate people to produce reasonably by following the rules. In the field of consumption, philosophers before Qin dynasty pay attention to the importance of thrifty consumption and philosophers also advocate people to protect the ecological environment and know stop and content when they consume the natural resources. In the fields of taxation and distribution, philosophers before Qin dynasty choose the train of harmony thought simultaneously and they pay attention to maintain the society economy's persistent development by the relative fairness tax policy and the distribution policy taking into consideration every aspect.The ecological genes in philosophers' economic thought before Qin dynasty provide profound enlightenment for us who getting trapped in ecological dilemma. We should foster our ecological sympathy from the morality height and improve our various environmental protection policies from the law angle and implement these environmental protection articles at our actions. It is necessary to study philosophers' economics thought before Qin dynasty by an ecological visual angle in our country. First, environment ethics is a new branch of science which is conducted to establish ecological ethics that can help human beings to resolve environment problems and China need it too, while the entirety thinking model of philosophers before Qin dynasty provides the most effective tool undoubtedly. Second, it is necessary to draw up the underline of ecological morality in order to resolve environment problems, in this connection, these philosophers' practice that protecting natural resources with the enforceable power of country provides a certain consultation for us. Third, constructing a harmonious socialism society is the theme in our country, while these philosophers' practice that implementing the train of harmony thought by three angles provides profound enlightenment for us. Fourth, constructing a conservation-minded society is an important policy of our country government, while philosophers' views are applicable to current China which has the official standard and the problem that the population is far beyond of nature's supply ability, such as, paying attention to officials' demonstration by their thrifty consumption, paying attention to protect natural resources, and so on. Fifth, constructing the environment morality is the essential approach to resolve the environment problems, while the Confucian scholars' practice that cherishing everything in nature by the train of their logical thought also provides profound enlightenment for scholars of the age who consider that human beings should admit the immanent value of nature.
