Goz’s Eco-political Thought And Its Enlightenment To The Construction Of Ecological Civilization In China

With the transition from agricultural society to industrial society,the natural environment on which people depend for their survival has been destroyed,and the problems of ecological environment have become increasingly prominent,threatening the survival and development of human beings.People began to seek solutions to the problems.Theorists analyzed the ecological environment problems from a political point of view,which resulted in the ecological political thought.As a leading figure of French left-wing thinkers,Goz examined contemporary capitalism critically.Goz criticized the capitalist system profoundly from the perspective of eco-politics.He believed that the root of the ecological crisis was the capitalist system.He put forward representative eco-political thoughts and advocated the construction of an eco-socialist society.Goz tries to start with the construction of ecological rationality and try to deal with the ecological crisis.This paper combs the theoretical origin of Goz’s eco-political thought in detail,and expounds its eco-political thought systematically and comprehensively.Ecological problems are an important issue in the construction of ecological environment in China.Studying ecological problems from a political point of view is conducive to consolidating the political superstructure and providing guidance for the construction of ecological civilization in China.From the political point of view,this paper analyses the harm of ecological crisis to capitalist society,and points out that the root cause of ecological crisis in capitalist society is the economic crisis of capitalist system.Combining with the basic viewpoints of Goz’s eco-politics,it provides the proper meaning for the construction of ecological civilization.This article synthesizes the domestic and foreign research literature,first of all,it analyses the theoretical source of Gauz’s ecological political thought.It points out that Sartre’s existentialism,Frankfurt School’s thought and Marx’s classical writer’s thought are the theoretical sources.Secondly,starting from the overall framework,this paper studies the basic content of Gauz’s eco-political thought.Goz criticized the capitalist system profoundly by using the thought of eco-politics.Goz believes that economic rationality dominates capitalist society and causes serious ecological environment problems in capitalist society.Goz therefore proposed that “advanced socialism”is the best choice to protect the ecological environment.Finally,the basic viewpoints of Gauz’s eco-political thought are comprehensively analyzed,and the organic relations among several parts are found,in order to provide a theoretical paradigm for the construction of ecological civilization in China.Goz criticized the capitalist system in detail.Natural problems are the direct cause of ecological problems,while the fundamental cause is the problems of human beings and human society caused by the capitalist system.If we want to solve the ecological problems,we must improve the human political system.Goz explained that the ecological crisis of capitalism was due to the domination of economic rationality.Thus,Goz put forward the concept of ecological rationality,and deeply and comprehensively criticized economic rationality.Goz believes that ecological reconstruction is necessary to alleviate the ecological crisis.Due to the inherent limitations of capitalist society,the task of ecological reconstruction has a long way to go.Only the socialist system can guarantee the implementation of ecological rationality.Goz exposed the limitations of capitalist society from the perspective of eco-politics,pointing out that the only way to solve the ecological crisis fundamentally is to change the capitalist system.From the point of view of cognition,Goz criticized the economic rationality,pointing out that people changed from the original production and consumption concept of “just enough” to “more and better”production and consumption concept.Goz deeply criticized the economic development model of capitalist society under the guidance of economic rationality.To rethink the traditional socialism eco-politics.Starting from the capitalist social system,Goz strongly criticized the socialist system of the Soviet model.Goz pointed out that real socialism could not be realized under the Soviet model,and economic rationality still dominated the Soviet model of socialism.The eco-political conception of the future society.After deeply criticizing the traditional socialist society,Goz turned to the conception of the future eco-socialist society.Goz pointed out that in order to build an eco-socialist society,we must advocate ecological rationality,“better production,better life”.To fundamentally change the way of production and life of human society,we must abandon the capitalist concept of consumption.Goz pointed out that the advanced socialist society can realize the development of everyone’s free self-determination.Goz criticizes the capitalist system from the perspective of ecology,deeply reflects on the traditional Soviet socialist model,and puts forward the idea of establishing ecological socialism,which has certain feasibility.The idea of the advanced socialist system in the future put forward by Goz is of realistic significance,and Goz put forward to carry out it.The choice of ecological reconstruction is advanced socialism,the choice of decentralized technology,and the way of life is “less production,better life”.Goz put forward the idea of ecological socialism in the future.He believed that not only should we choose the right way of life,but also we must eliminate the mode of paid labor in order to promote personal self-realization.Due to the limitations of the times,Goz’s vision of the future society is not supported by practice and has a utopian color.But its assumption has important enlightenment for us to solve the current ecological problems.
