马克思的高级使用价值理论与循环经济

Marx's Theories of Advanced Use Value and the Circular Economy

循环经济是指以资源循环利用和环境友好为基本特征的社会生产方式。这种生产方式坚持三个原则,即资源利用减量化原则、产品生产和使用过程中的再利用原则以及废弃物的再循环原则。循环经济的实质是生态经济、节约经济和科技经济的融合。马克思的高级使用价值理论和节约理论已经包含了当代循环经济理论的基本内涵。他的这一理论主要分布于《马克思恩格斯全集》第25、46、47、48卷,内容丰富、实际、精辟。循环经济理论只不过是马克思的高级使用价值理论的别名而已。据此可见,马克思是循环生产,抑或循环经济理论的创始人。

Circular economy takes the resource recycling and friendly environment as basic features of the social mode of production. This mode insists on three principles: reduction of resource utilization, recycling in the production and use of products, recycling of trash. Therefore, the essence of circular economy is a blend of eco-economy, economical economy and sci-tech economy. Marx's theory of advanced use value and economizing contains the fundamental connotation of the contemporary theory of circular economy, that are mainly in The Complete Works of Karl Marx and Frederick Engels vol.25, 46, 47 and 48. The circular economy theory is merely another name of Marx's theory of advanced use value. Therefore, Marx is the founder of recycling production and circular economy theory.
