儒道生态思想的当代价值

The Contemporary Value of the Ecological Thinking of Confucianism and Taoism

儒家文化中"天人合一"、"仁爱大德"、"物我平等"、"圣王之制"和道家文化中"道法自然"、"物我为一"、"慈俭四知"等观点蕴含了丰富的生态思想底蕴;儒道文化的"天人合一"有机整体观、人与万物和谐平等的伦理观、天人协调的发展观等思想具有合理性,但也存在朴素、消极的历史局限性;继承和发展儒道文化中的合理生态思想,对于构建人与自然有机联系的系统整体观、关爱自然万物的伦理观、天人和谐的可持续发展观具有重要的当代价值,也为建设"两型社会"提供了重要的生态思想文化资源。

There contains abundant ecological thought in the basic concepts of ＂harmony between man and nature,＂ ＂the greatness of kindheartedness,＂ ＂equality between things and self, ＂ ＂the governance of sage king＂ in the Confucianist culture and in the ideas of ＂ The law of Tao goes by self-so＂, ＂unity of things and self, ＂ and ＂four wisdoms of kindness and thriftiness＂ of the Taoist culture. Confucianism and Taoism culture, with its organic holistic view of ＂harmony between man and nature＂, its ethical view of harmoni- ous equality between man and nature, development view of man and heaven, has its rationality~ however, it also has simple, negative historical limitations. The inheritance and development of the reasonable ecological thought in Confucianism and Taoism culture will be of contemporary referential value for the contemporary construction of the systematic holistic view of the organic relations between man and nature, the ethical view of love for nature and myriad of things, sustainable development view of harmony between man and nature, and provides important ecological ideological and cultural resources for the construction of a ＂resource-saving and environ- ment-friendly＂ society.
