Abstract/Summary:
The ecological environment problem has developed into a global ecological crisis. Many countries are looking for solutions to ecological crisis. The ecological environment in the contemporary situation is deteriorating, and the domestic and foreign scholars have paid attention to Marxism theory, hoping that they would find solutions for ecological crisis from Marx's theory of nature. Marx's view of nature contains a wealth of ecological philosophy; the dialectical relationship between human and nature is a red line in his nature theory. Practical man-made viewpoint towards nature is a revolutionary in view of nature. Marx studied and analyzed the basic causes of ecological crisis, and put forward suggestions to solve ecological crisis in specific ways, which is theoretical and practical for us to solve the crisis and construct a ecological civilization. In this paper, the issue of global ecological environment is the breakthrough point, and from a civilized ecological angle, I analyze Marx's view of nature. And this article is developed into five parts. The first chapter is mainly about the evolution of Western view of nature: The ancient time organic overall conception of nature, Christianity theology conception of nature in the middle age, Metaphysics mechanism conception of nature in the modern times, and how these three concepts developed. The second Chapter stresses the basic content of Marx's view of nature's, which includes the dialectical relationship between man and nature, the alienation of people and nature, and the natural humanitarianism. The relationship between human and nature is the basic issue. Marx scientifically expounded the position of human in nature, and the human's importance to nature. The third chapter is about the characters of Marx's view of natural. Marx's view of nature is different from the previous view of nature, because it's prominent figures of the practice and the system. Marx's view of nature is a practical and man-made view of nature, which considers people - nature - society as a complete entity. The fourth chapter stresses that the Marx's thoughts of ecology. It mainly includes two aspects: First, Marx's analyzed the causes of ecological crisis: Fracture metabolism is the direct reason and capitalist system is the basic causes. Second is the ways to solve the ecological crisis: the rational use of Capitalized technology, human liberation and social revolution. The fifth chapter is mainly about the practical significance of Marxist view of nature in our ecological civilization construction. If China wants to smoothly construct ecological, she needs a awakening for awareness of ecological civilization, establishing a scientific views on development and sustainable development concepts, vigorously developing in circular economy, establishing a healthy consumption patterns, promoting green consumption and so on.
