人类生态观演变初探

A Preliminary Study on the Evolution of Human's Ecological View

原始人类社会的一个共同点是基于对生命的崇拜。进入文明社会后,大多数古老文明抛弃了这种原始崇拜,形成了“人类中心主义”的传统。这种传统引发了局部的生态恶化,并最终导致许多古代文明的衰落。发端于西方的工业革命,加剧了人与自然的对立,引发了全球性的生态危机,这就迫使人们反思人与自然的关系。在这种反思中,吸收和借鉴中国富有生命力的传统的生态观,是形成现代人类生态观的有效方法。

A common characteristic of primitive human society was life worship. After entering civilized society, the majority of the ancient civilizations abandoned this kind of primitive worship, and took the form of ＂human-centered＂ tradition, which caused some partial ecological deterioration, and resulted in decline of many ancient civilizations. Industrial Revolution that originated from the West turned worse the opposition between human being and nature, caused the world ecological crisis,which urges people to reflect on the relationship between human being and nature. In this kind of reflection ,to absorb and use the Chinese traditional ecological view,which is full of life, is the valid method for establishing the ecological view of modem man.
