《管子》生态消费思想及其现实意义

Guanzi’s Eco - consuming Ideology and Its Realistic Significance

《管子》的生态消费思想相当丰富。《管子》揭示了有限的资源、民力、财富同人们无限的消费欲望之间的矛盾,较早提出了节俭的消费观。《管子》认识到了奢侈消费蛊惑人心、消磨人们意志,最终将导致国家衰败的现象,并据此提出了应从奢侈品的生产环节入手,限制甚至禁止奢侈品的生产来化解奢侈消费之风。在奢侈消费之风日盛的新全球化时代,管子生态消费思想的现代转换和当代出场,是中国生态文明建设的必然要求和现实选择。

The eco -consuming ideology of Guanzi is very abundant. Guanzi exposed the contradiction be- tween limited resources and the financial resources of people＇ s wealth and people＇ s endless desire for material consumption, and proposed thrift consuming concept. Guanzi realized that luxury consumption could cloud the minds of people, weaken their will , and lead to the decline of the country at last. Hereby, it suggests that peo- ple should restrict the production of luxury items and that the practice of using such items should be publicly frowned upon. In the new era of globalization of the increasing tendency of luxurious consumption, the modern conversion and contemporary appearance of Guanzi＇ s eco - conception ideology are the inevitable requirements for the construction of China＇ s eco - consumption and practical choice.
