In the 19th century,with the European industrial revolution in full swing,the capitalism developed rapidly,and a series of problems were brought out.Human beings were in distress,and nature was wildly plundered,the balance between man and nature was broken,resulting in a serious crisis.Marx focused his attention on the future of man and reflected the reality,and then he germinated his genius thought on the basis of inheriting Hegel's conceptual view of nature and Feuerbach's perceptual intuitive view of nature,and formed the objective relationship between man and nature.The Manuscript of Economics and Philosophy in 1844 is a concentrated expression of his thought process.In the manuscript,Marx put man and nature in the perceptual and realistic field of vision,that the two are mutual object,and in interactive symbiosis in a certain social relationship.Thus,the perceptual practice of human beings embodies the process of the unity of the objectified essential forces and the humanization of objects.Marx used the concept of "labor" to run through his whole ecological thought,and he thought that the intermediary that realized the two-way interaction between man and nature was the labor of man,and if the labor of man was alienated,it would cause the rupture of the harmonious relationship between man and nature,and cause the contradiction between them.Under the private ownership of capitalism,human labor became alienated labor,the objective relationship between man and nature had also been alienated,people just had one-sided possession of their own life,human's subject activity alienated into one-way use of nature,the capital put human and nature in wild plunder and destruction,resulting in the developmental crisis of both human and nature.To break the alienation state and restore the emotional warmth between man and nature,capitalist private ownership must be eliminated and communism should be pursuited.Only in this way can people regain the material of production and subsistence,the basis of enslavement can be completely destroyed,people can fully occupy their own essence of life,become their own masters,and nature can achieve real resurrection.Communism is the real solution to the contradiction between man and man,man and nature,and the answer to the ecological problem.Marx's thinking about the human nature and the relationship between man and nature shows his concern for the living condition of the real people.His related exposition about the ecological thought in the manuscript embodies the profound ecological implication.It not only proves that Marx does have ecological thought,but also enriches the connotation of Marxist philosophy,and then expands the textual research dimension of the manuscript,affects the study of the Ecological Marxism.Besides this,it also provides a profound theoretical guidance for our country in the current construction of ecological civilization and the solution to global ecological crisis.
