本文从人类已超出可持续发展的极限、正在走向崩溃这一可怕真相出发,阐述人类发展应从全球化转向本地化并创造一种新的生态文明的重要性。文章提出应构建可持续的本地社区,并发展与之相应的本地经济理论和生态经济学,兼顾个体的福利、社群的福利、环境的福利乃至万物的内在价值。文章最后呼吁建设一个后现代世界,并指出这并非不切实际的呐喊,而是一种真正的“现实主义”的道路,它既能建构一个新文明,又能保留甚至发展传统。
This article starts from the horrifying truth that humankind has exceeded the limit of sustainable development and is going to collapse. It expounds the importance of human development from globalization to localization and creation of a new ecological civilization. The article proposes that sustainable local communities should be constructed and corresponding local economic theories and ecological economics developed, taking into account individual welfare, community welfare, environmental welfare and even the intrinsic value of all things. Finally, the article calls for building a postmodern world and points out that this is not an unrealistic cry but a real “realism” that can both build a new civilization and preserve or even develop tradition.
