怀特海过程哲学的生态走向及启示

On the Ecological Trend and Inspirations of Whitehead's Process Philosophy

怀特海过程哲学蕴含着丰富而深刻的生态思想质素,其有机统一的自然观、动态和谐的美学观、内在共生的价值论,规定着怀特海哲学从过程到生态的内在精神趋势。过程、经验、生态,是怀特海庞大的形而上学体系中几个节点性的概念。过程具有生态性,生态具有过程性,通过经验范畴的承载和中介,过程哲学的生态性质得以凸显并最终实现。怀特海过程哲学的当代启示在于,要保护生态多样性,呵护生命共同体;促进生态整体性,激发环境生产力;营造文明生态,建设生态文明。

Whitehead's process philosophy contains rich and profound qualities of ecological thought.Its organic and unified view of nature,dynamic and harmonious aesthetics,and the axiology of intrinsic symbiosis have defined the inner spiritual trend of Whitehead's philosophy from process to ecology.Process,experience,and ecology are the several nodal concepts in Whitehead's vast metaphysical system.Process is ecological,and ecology is procedural.Through the bearing and intermediary of experience category,the ecological nature of his process philosophy can be highlighted and finally realized.The contemporary inspirations of Whitehead's process philosophy lie in protecting ecological diversity and caring for the interdependent life community;promoting ecological integrity and stimulating environmental productivity;creating a civilized ecology and building the ecological civilization.
