经济哲学视阈下生态危机发生机制的“欲望”根源

生态危机实质上是人与自然关系的危机,导源于近代以来人性当中追求财富“欲望”的激活、充盈和非理性冲动。从经济哲学的视角来看,人类追求财富的欲望理应作为生态危机产生的逻辑预设,因而在以追求财富欲望为基始的批判反思坐标系中,“经济理性”、“科技理性”和“消费暴力”构成了三个不同的批判向度。自然变为“他者”,生态“被宰制”直至引发难以拯救的灾难性恶果,必然关涉到人类追求财富欲望的这三个向度。
Ecological crisis is essentially a crisis in the relationship between man and nature, which originated from man’s increasing desire for wealth and irrational impulses since modern times. From the perspective of economic philosophy, man’s desire for wealth should be the logical presupposition of ecological crisis. Hence, economic rationality, technological rationality and irrational consumption constitute three dimensions in the reflective criticism of the pursuit of wealth. These three critical dimensions are closely related to the fact that nature has been alienated and the ecological system destroyed, leading to irreversible catastrophic consequences
