The maladies of developed industrial society lead to ecological crisis and then human existence crisis.The era of Marcuse’s life is the era of the rapid development of western society industry.He starts from the multi-perspective and level,and makes a deep study on the relationship between man and nature.In the process of social development,the modern morality has been materialized,the technology has been instrumentalized,which leads to the alienation of nature,then leads to the alienation of man,and finally leads to the alienation of the relationship between man and nature.Marcuse,based on the overall development of human beings and the overall interests of the consideration,proposed that people should extend the moral perspective of the traditional human-centered theory from the whole from the ecosystem perspective,to create a harmonious ethical relationship between man and nature.The pure utilitarian values dominate the modern political structure of the capitalist society,the natural subject morality is ignored,and the technological rationality on which the natural rationality is based is attacked by the modern industrial civilization.Marcuse criticizes this,and puts forward that we should respect the intrinsic and external natural values of human beings,and then realize double liberation.In the capitalist industrialization civilization mode,how to solve the ecological crisis in the face of ecological crisis,Marcuse’s ecological Marxist thought provides us with a historical reference,but also for us to find the historical choice to solve the ecological crisis in the era of capitalist industrialization development.Although Marcuse’s ecological Marxism thought also has the utopian fantasy,but he explores from the realistic level This paper analyzes the relationship between man and nature and the nature of man.His research results are of great practical significance.Based on the historical data,this paper sums up the ecological viewpoint of Marcuse and tries to clarify his ecological thought.Through the research of the following questions,the author tries to expound his profound ecological Marxist thought:The first question is the basic question of this paper,that is,the origin of Marcuse’s ecological Marxist thought.This is the key issue of this thesis,and it is also the theoretical starting point of correctly understanding Marcuse’s ecological Marxist thought.The solution to this problem includes the social background and theoretical background of Marcuse’s ecological Marxist thought King.Therefore,this article starts from the global ecological crisis which causes the tension between man and nature,starts from Marcuse’s inheritance and development of Marx’s thought,carries out the research on Marcuse’s ecological Marxist thought,and shows Marcuse’s biological Marxist thought from different dimensions.The second problem is the profound connotation of Marcuse’s ecological Marxism.Then the solution to this problem is mainly through the analysis of Marcuse’s ecological critical thought,so as to understand the depth of Marcuse’s Ecological Marxist thought and the uniqueness of his thought.We can not only find out the specific reasons for Marcuse to solve the ecological crisis,but also feel the overall characteristics of his thoughts,and criticize the developed capitalist society from the perspectives of politics,economy,culture,art and so on.Behind these critiques are the more important issues,such as the ecological criticism of capitalism,the concern about the relationship between man and nature,and the concern about the future of mankind.In fact,to be able to find the crisis does not necessarily mean to be able to solve the crisis.The key to solving the crisis is to be able to find the cause of the crisis.Marcuse found the reason for the tension between man and nature through the reflection of the whole alienation of the developed industrial society is that man strengthens the performance of the principle of self-reliance in the aspects of system,mode of production and way of life.Ecological problem is the presentation of human and social problems in the relationship between human and nature.Ecological criticism constitutes the core power of Marcuse’s ecological Marxism.The third problem is to reveal the solution path and double liberation of ecological crisis.This is the core of Marcuse’s ecological Marxism and the core content of this article.It is the most important of Marcuse’s ecological ethics to explore the way to save the ecological crisis and the prospect of the double liberation of man and nature.Under the overall background of the overall control of the western developed industrial society,Marcuse is trying to seek the path of dual liberation of man and nature.He not only introduces the liberation theory of ecological ethics dimension into the radical social and political changes and technological changes,but also introduces the liberation theory into the liberation of human psychological desire and aesthetic liberation,and seeks a new revolution in a new sense The subject,in the sense of totality,seeks the reconciliation between man and nature in order to achieve the harmony between man and nature.In the harmonious coexistence of man and nature,man not only realizes the identity of freedom and self action,but also fully displays and exerts the individual function,and obtains the free space for the all-round development of human beings,which not only conforms to the happiness principle of individual satisfaction advocated by Marcuse,but also embodies the ultimate idea of human happiness pursued by Marcuse in his whole life It can only eliminate the oppression of man and nature caused by the developed industrial society,and can also restore the double-sided dimension that human beings transcend while criticizing,and realize the overall liberation of human beings in the poetic habitat.
