Research On The "Common Coexistence" Theory Of Ozeki Shuji

With the intensification of economic globalization and internationalization,economic resources are flowing and reallocated on a large scale all over the world,and the communication between people and countries is getting closer and closer.The alienation of people and the relationship between people and nature also show a trend of globalization.It is in the alienation of labor that the relationship between people becomes more and more indifferent,which has brought a huge crisis to the development of the entire human society.In this case,a series of critical theories in western society have broadened their perspective to the field of language and communication.The increasingly serious global environmental crisis has made scholars all over the world turn their attention to the relationship between man and nature.As one of the leading figures of contemporary Japanese Marxism,Ozeki Shuji insisted on the Marxist road,criticized the alienation phenomenon caused by the post-modern capitalism from the perspective of globalization,and explored solutions to the problems of the relationship between people,countries,and people and nature in modern society.The first part mainly outlines the social background and theoretical background of Ozeki Shuji’s pioneering "symbiosis".Ozeki Shuji starting from the problems existing in the real society,under the influence of rich and diverse academic views,discussed its social history background and theoretical basis,and fused its theoretical interpretation with real life to form the idea of "co-existence".The second part analyzes the definition of "individual","community" and "symbiosis".From the standpoint of human history,Ozeki Shuji discussed "individual","community" and "symbiosis" respectively.Ozeki Shuji summarized two types of "symbiosis" in Japanese academic circles.One is the "Holy Land Symbiosis Theory" of Kurokawa Kisho,hat is,the Holy Land Symbiosis Theory is a value that beautifies the traditional community of forced homogenization;The other is Masahiro Tatsuo’s "competition symbiosis theory",which denies the former’s pre modern values,advocates the introduction of modern civil society values that respect heterogeneity,and advocates the establishment of a new co symbiosis theory based on equality.On the basis of criticizing and absorbing the two "symbiosis" concepts,Ozeki Shuji proposed a new concept beyond "symbiosis in holy land" and "symbiosis in competition"-"symbiosis together".Whether it is "Holy Land Symbiosis","Competitive Symbiosis" or "Common Symbiosis",it actually involves how to understand the relationship between "individuals" and "communities".The third part analyzes the idea of environmental symbiosis and communication symbiosis proposed by Ozeki Shuji from the relationship between man and nature and the relationship between man and man.With the rapid development of modern capitalism,people’s ability to dominate nature has been constantly enhanced.Aimed at the dilemma of the relationship between people,Ozeki Shuji believed that overemphasized the role of productivity,finally led to alienation.The new historical materialism Habermas tried to establish injected the idea of communication.Ozeki Shujiagreed with Habermas’ s practice of establishing historical materialism from the perspective of communication,and advocated that people respect differences and co-exist together.Regarding the relationship between man and nature,Ozeki Shuji put forward the idea of environmental symbiosis.He believed that man is a socialized nature and that man should respect nature rather than try to control and dominate it.And on the basis of analyzing and developing Marx’s material metabolism thought of man and nature,it is considered that this thought is a neutral thought that transcends the opposition between anthropocentrism and natural centrism.The fourth part discusses the thought and practical conception of "symbiotic and sustainable society" in Ozeki Shuji.Based on the idea of common symbiosis,Ozeki Shuji tried to solve the serious crisis in the current capitalist society by building a "symbiotic and sustainable society".Firstly,Human beings originally had the commonality as the origin of human nature,but the traditional village community in feudal society had the exclusiveness and closeness of suppressing heterogeneity,so the disintegration of the traditional community and the formation of modern civil society were historical progress.He also believed that in the process of the formation and development of civil society,Although science and technology and material wealth are becoming more and more developed,it also leads to the phenomenon that people’s creations,as alien forces,are increasingly dominating people.Secondly,Ozeki Shuji criticized Habermas’ s theory that the life world was finally alienated into a system from the perspective of Marxist labor theory,so as to build a new "common world".Lastly,Based on these theories,Ozeki Shuji put forward that in education,we should cultivate "cultural and scientific integration" talents who adapt to economic globalization,and in human and nature,we should shift from "industrial activities" to "agricultural activities",so as to establish "urban and rural symbiotic society",and build a new world system of international joint countries in human and human aspects.The fifth part introduces the theoretical contribution and theoretical limitations of Ozeki Shuji’s thought of symbiosis,which is of great significance for China to build a community with a shared future for mankind,jointly build an open world economy,promote the construction of ecological civilization,and realize the harmonious coexistence between man and nature.Ozeki Shuji’s "symbiosis thought" not only advocated the construction of a materialistic historical view from the perspective of productivity,but also from the perspective of communication and environment,defending the scientific nature of Marxism.The analysis of the relationship between man and nature deepens the Marxist ecological environment thought.The "symbiosis thought" of Ozeki Shuji and the "symbiotic sustainable society" based on the "symbiosis" thought enrich the connotation of the "symbiosis" thought.However,There are still some problems in his thought.He emphasizes that in order to realize the common coexistence of people,we must get rid of the capitalist market economy that makes "labor force commercialized",but what kind of economic system should be adopted in practice to avoid becoming Utopian socialism or relying solely on the moralism that inhibits desire? On the other hand,He advocates that we should give up the high-speed growth doctrine and adopt the small-scale self-sufficiency and land consumption agricultural production mode.But how should we ensure the independent survival and development of regions with poor natural conditions that cannot be self-sufficient? In addition,under the current international order,what specific measures should be taken to narrow the gap between the rich and the poor between North and South,and build an "international joint country" that is truly equal and mutually beneficial between developed and developing countries?On the whole,the research contribution of Ozeki Shuji’s "co-existence" thought in the fields of communication,labor and environment is mainly divided into two levels.On the one hand,as a Marxist,he fully uses Marxist theory to seek truth from facts and keep pace with the times.He broadens and deepens Marxist theory on the relationship between man and nature,and makes a new interpretation of the times,which has very rich practical significance;On the other hand,it is the transcendence of communication theory,which makes up the gap of labor perspective when dealing with interpersonal relations in the past,and makes it more in line with the requirements of the times.However,due to its one-sided cognition of the relationship between capitalism and science,and its visionary limitation of the practical concept of "urban rural symbiotic society",its theory still has many shortcomings.However,the idea of "co-existence" of Ozeki Shuji is still of great significance in making China better adapt to the development environment of globalization and building a more harmonious relationship between man and nature.Therefore,it is necessary to treat this problem dialectically.While criticizing it,we should also discard its dross and extract its essence.
