生态帝国主义与全球化

Ecological Imperialism and Globalization

"全球化"是伴随着资本主义社会的兴起而开始其自身的发展历程的。全球化从一定程度上说是资本主义制度在全球的扩张,是资本主义的全球化,始终伴随着资本主义财富的积累和权力的增大。资本主义的经济、政治、文化在资本主义全球化的过程中起着重要作用,但同时,生态问题也是一个不容忽视的重要因素,生态帝国主义是资本主义发展的策略手段,是资本主义制度权力扩张的必然结果,也是推动资本主义全球化的重要力量,并且也在为资本主义向社会主义的转化积累着条件。该文试图从欧洲过去1000年的生态扩张历程和当前资本主义生态危机转移的角度来说明生态帝国主义在全球的扩张。

Globalization is a social phenomenon that has arisen with the development of capitalism. Globalization, to some extent, is the global capitalism, accompanied by accumulation of wealth and expansion of state power. Apart from economy, politics and culture, ecology also plays an important role in global capitalism. Ecological Imperialism is the form of tactic of capitalism, and is also the inevitable result of capitalism. It is the driving power for capitalism while also prepares the condition for the transformation from capitalism to socialism. This paper tries to elucidate the global expansion of Ecological Imperialism in terms of the ecological expansion of Europe in the past a thousand years and the ecological crisis transfer of contemporary capitalism.
