Foster is a famous American Ecology Marxist. He adopted the way of interpretation and analysis to Marx’s text, with a profound analysis to the ecological thought implied in Marx materialism, and creatively reconstruct Marx material transformation rift theory, and he put forward that Marx Material transformation rift thought is the key to understand Marx’ ecological thought. On this basis, he developed the ecological Marxism ideology, driving the major changes of the contemporary western Marxist theory and methodology, and opened up more broad prospects for the development of the western ecological Marxism. This article is to focus on this. Based on the systematic way to explain Foster’s reconstruction of Marx material transformation rift theory, it tries to dig the internal thought of circular economy thought inside Foster’s reconstruction of Marx material transformation rift theory, and find the guiding direction of this theory to circular economy. It provides constructive theoretical basis and practical significance for China’s construction of ecological civilization and the development of circular economy. |
