The Philosophical Content and the Realistic Value Mountains, Rivers, Forests, Land and Lakes Forming a Community of Shared Life

Abstract

This paper gives an account of the philosophical content and realistic value of the theory of Mountains, rivers, forests, land and lakes forming a community of shared life by the Marxist dialectical and historical materialism. This theory fundamentally advocates Marx's nature preexistence principle of materialism, and indicates us to respect nature from the equality between human and nature. Moreover, we apply dialectics to clarify the interdependence between human and nature for the well-being of the mankind. Therefore, it is expected that this ecological thought of Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee, Chinese President and Chairman of the Central Military Commission, is of great practical significance to the reform of China’s ecological system, ecosystem management and the China’s ecological civilization.
