地学价值论:地球人文社会科学研究的基本理论

Geological Value Theory:The Basic Theory of Earth's Humanities and Social Sciences

地球科学被定义为自然科学,现在一般只进行它的自然科学研究。但是,现在的地球并不是纯粹自然的地球,而是人类活动特别是工业改变了的地球,是人类学的地球;地球已经进入一个新的地质时代——"人类世"地质时代。对新的地质时代的地球研究,不仅需要自然科学,而且需要人文社会科学,并要把自然科学与人文社会科学结合起来。地学价值论是地球人文社会科学研究的基本理论。据此本文对地球的科学有用性、地球的经济有用性和地球的社会有用性进行基本分析。

Earth science is defined as the natural science, and it is now generally only in the form of natural science research. However, now the earth is not a purely natural earth, but also an anthropological earth, mainly because of human＇s industrial activities. The earth has entered a new geologic epoch, anthropo- cene. For the earth research of anthropocene, there is the need not only of natural sciences, but also of humanities and social sciences, and the need of the integration of natural sciences and humanities and social sciences. The geological value theory is the basic theory of earth＇s humanities and social sciences. Accordingly this paper analyses the earth＇s scientific usefulness, the earth＇s economic usefulness and the earth＇s social usefulness.
