马克思、恩格斯的生态观与和谐社会的建构

Marx and Engels′ Ecological View and the Construction of a Harmonious Society

马克思和恩格斯毕生都在关注和思考人类的前途和命运,他们对人、自然和社会三者之间的关系进行了系统的研究。马克思、恩格斯的生态观认为,人类要生存和发展,必须实现“人类同自然的和解与人类本身的和解”。这是独具慧眼的忠言,也是振聋发聩的警示。马克思、恩格斯的生态观为当今人类摆脱全球性危机,走出生存困境,进而建构中国特色社会主义和谐社会,具有重大的启迪意义,为我们提供了一条清晰的认识问题和解决问题的基本线索,即在资源有限的情况下,建立一个科学、民主、公正、和平且能永续的和谐社会。中国特色社会主义事业的总体布局,也应由社会主义经济建设、政治建设、文化建设三位一体发展为包括构建和谐社会在内的四位一体,即“四个文明”。

Marx and Engels spent their whole life caring and considering the future and fate of human beings, studying the relationship between man, nature and society systematically. Their ecological view was that ＂man must be reconciled with nature and man himself＂ in order to exist and develop. This is not only a piece of insightful advice, but also a shocking warning. Marx and Engels＇ ecological view is of special significance to man when he wants to rid him of a global crisis, step out of existence dilemma and construct a harmonious socialist society with Chinese characteristics. It provides a clear clue for understanding and solving problems, viz. how to build a scientific, democratic, just and sustainable harmonious society with limited resources. The overall layout of socialist cause with Chinese characteristics should expand beyond the trinity of economic, political and cultural constructions to include the construction of a harmonious society.
