Release time: 2024-06-13
Abstract:The 20th National Congress of the CPC proposed to advance the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese-style modernization on all fronts as the mission and task of the new era and the new journey of our Party. It stressed that modernization featuring harmonious coexistence between man and nature is one of the “five characteristics” of Chinese-style modernization, which endowed the ecological civilization construction in the new era with new historical missions. Industrial civilization has achieved a great leap in the overall productivity of human society and created material wealth unseen in history, but it has also caused a high tension between man and nature. Solving the ecological crisis and building a modernization featuring harmonious coexistence between man and nature are not optional. They are a must for all mankind to jointly meet challenges and build a community with a shared future. From the perspective of philosophy, the philosophy of man ruling nature is coming to an end and the times call for the construction of a philosophical system of harmonious coexistence between man and nature. Under a grand historical vision, we should adhere to the “two combinations”, grasp in a coordinated way the traditional Chinese ecological wisdom, the Marxist thought on the relationship between human beings and nature and Xi Jinping thought on ecological civilization, create a Chinese school of environmental ethics, build a Chinese Marxist eco-philosophical discourse system, and lead the new development of human civilization.
