Study On The Two Sides Of The Transgenic Technology, From The Perspective Of The Concept Of Marx’s Science And Echnology

Transgenic technology, since which has first appeared in the world, is highly concerned by the whole society as the most dramatic development of modern science and technology. It can solve plenty of difficulties in reality, such as the food crisis, energy shortage, medicine problem and so on. However, every coin has two sides. With this skill stretching deeper and deeper, some problems have come out as well. In order to get a comprehensive understanding of this new coming thing, we need to study it from the perspective of Marxism.In Marxists’ opinions, every successful invention of science and technology can be concerned as a power to further the natural productivity and a revolution changes to the human society. With this double-edged sword in hand, it may give us a bit of historical progresses, while our nature and spiritual civilization have been sacrificed. To bring a huge benefit to human beings and improve the human material civilization, people changed their attitude towards this thing and made the human society in a dilemma.In Marxism, everything must be divided into two parts, the same as the transgenic technology. There also exists the positive and negative point to the development of human society. In some areas, transgenic technology has played an important role in improving agricultural productivity, which can be a very useful means to the animal husbandry and aquaculture; Research and development of new drugs and new materials provides a reliable guarantee. However, during the process of transgenic technology development, it will cause many damages such as the genetic drift and gene pollution, which will do much harms to the natural environment; The unfair distributions will appear because of the benefits of transgenic technology, even some serious national economic contradictions; With genetically modified(gm) food coming into the public’s table, countless harnesses can do to the human body. As gm technology life has a profound impact on people, transgenic problems will inevitably asked us pay a great attention.Viewed from the Marxism, science and technology should follow the principle of integrity, to ensure the integrity of nature and provide with a better condition to human in the future. Follow the principle of harmless, to ensure the ecological safety and human health and safety; Follow the principle of fairness, in order to realize the global gm technology of equality and mutual benefit and resource sharing; Follow the principle of utility, in order to balance the benefits and risks of transgenic technology and the relationship between measurement; Follow the principle of responsibility, in order to strengthen the responsibility consciousness and the moral nature. We must continuously promote the healthy and benign development of genetically modified(gm) technology under the spirit of unity, so that can we make a better place and a better world.
