Feel the motivation of history in a very far place

Author:China News Weekly Time:2022.08.05

Can't help but make people feel that the motivation to promote predecessor

It is indeed the desire to achieve progress in the name of civilization

And to satisfy this desire to conquer nature and humans itself

As a book with a strong environmental protection, the breadth and time of the horizon and time of the "Floating Coast: The History of the Bai Ling Strait" vision is large enough. Moreover, it is valuable to compare the history of the Bai Ling Strait environment under the same way under the two systems of the United States and the former Soviet Union. Both of them have the banner of fighting for the well -being of human beings. To complete the plan indicators.

The author's ambitions are large enough, and want to achieve a more close and organic combination of human history and environment history. The methodology and expression tools are to incorporate the entire Bai Ling Strait's ecological changes into a systemic perspective in a long period of time, which is not limited to whale oil. SEM fur, sea elephant teeth and other items trade, and incorporate them into the so -called energy conversion chain, so that the conversion docking between human society and the environment is more "natural", and it can better make the "bears' legend" that The form of the form and soul between animals and souls can be transformed into the cultural metaphor of the cycle, and it is better included in environmental and cultural narratives. At the same time, through energy conversion, it has better solved the problem of how to develop more modern minerals and energy resources with relatively predecessor animal resources. It is a bit barely, it is better to return to the more traditional capital value chain, but it has more explanation and discourse tolerance.

In addition, the author avoided the perspective of foreigners in similar environmental protection books. The aboriginal people did not lose their speech. The author's long -term life experience in the Bai Lingluqiao area made her a bureau, which can more effectively endorse the indigenous people, not exactly the perspective of compassionate and compassionate perspective from the outside. Or unconsciously standing high, it is often upright.

As expected, in the eyes of the author, the kind of sustainable energy conversion between people and animals and the environment in the "Legend of Bear" is more desirable. This can easily resonate with Chinese readers who are nostalgic for the past rural life and the desire for "poetry and the distance".

Of course, if you look closely, this kind of idyllic herd -style narrative inevitably be too beautifying and high. Regardless of the life of the people and the quality of life, or the ability to deal with the challenges of the external environment, including natural disasters and epidemic, these people are universal. Standards measure, similar descriptions and respect for most people lack persuasion. In addition, the so -called conservation of energy conversion is to be more retrospective from the perspective of modern perspectives. As the aboriginal or hunters of the parties, they may not have such a consciousness, and the low -level sustainable to modern people (except those moral consciousness and environmental protection How attractiveness is the figure of a monk) in feelings? The answer is self -explanatory: the poetry in the distance needs to be saved, and the convenience around you cannot give up.

From a historical point of view, this fresh and gratifying "poem and distant" narrative has always been too weak when facing the past history view and the logic of capital. And the beef and other creatures such as Niu Niu have been slaughtered and repeatedly proved this. Even today, when people are aware of the importance of environmental protection, environmental narratives will inevitably be considered too high. They are too unhappy with fireworks, and even full of conspiracy: How to distribute the cost and cost of environmental protection? Almost all of the countries and regions that pay more attention to environmental protection are developed economies, and they have also had many past environmental protection, inhumane, and even bloody pasts. In the grand sense, human society and even the entire biological world are the community of destiny, but in daily life, people are in different economic and social systems and different stages of development. Former Soviet Union had long been promoted to the United States and the United States to vigorously implement the international ban and restriction agreement on fishery resources.

If the changes in the ecological environment are more observed from the value conversion chain under capital -driven, the dynamic logic of history will be obvious at a glance. Once everything in the world is included in the vision of capital and entering the value conversion chain, it can generate value, value can be covered and exceeded costs, and basically they are embarrassed, whether it is "energy conversion". Various value conversion behaviors are re -transformed into nature, improved human well -being, and given the "primitive" community to the ideology of civilization and such as civilization.

Compared with the promoters of capital, it is obviously more difficult to crack in the history of progress. From this dimension point of view, the author's comparative interpretation of environmental transformation under different social systems on both sides of the Bailing Strait is more inspiring and more precious.

The environmental history of the Bai Ling Strait shows that the difference between Soviet -style socialism and American capitalism may not be so great when facing nature. On the surface, in order to avoid the greed of capital and the disorder of the market, it emphasizes the scientificity of the plan. However, in order to complete the plan, it is obviously at the expense of the price and tend to be quite dry. The latter seems to be more rational because it emphasizes the effective market demand, but in fact, it is more often complied with the law of value. As long as there are surplus, they will let go of the big dry. Even if it is included in environmental protection considerations, it is more from "cost" Departure from an angle. The two sides have a similar taste of the disobedience of nature in accordance with the ideal model in the mind, the rules of the aboriginal people who exude the original atmosphere, and trying to domesticate hunting objects on a large scale.

This can not help people feel that the motivation to promote predecessors is indeed the desire to achieve progress in the name of civilization, and to satisfy this desire to conquer nature and humans itself. Those places with insufficient motivation for history, such as the far -reaching place of Bai Ling Strait, are difficult to generate the strength of the history of the banner of "productivity improvement". When facing the torrent of capital and scientific imperialism, they can only worship the wind. When people are aware of the importance of environmental protection, most of them have passed through, and all kinds of ecology and culture attached to them have become dusty.

Therefore, reading the entire book does not make people feel cheerful. Instead, it will make people feel that maybe environmental protection is in the final analysis. It is a philosophical issue. Humans must first recognize what the significance of their own survival is. The integrity and sustainability and specific benefits of this well -being environment should be quantified, and so on. As a particularly capable factors in the environment and ecosystem, human society has been interacting with the environment, and has been achieving technical breakthroughs. The ability to shape the environment has been improving until the appalling level. This "progress", this "progress", and Is the prospect of transformation and even possible destruction, is it part of this system?

If not, can humans go back? If so, need to go back to which stage, do you want to erase the transformation of human beings so far? In the end, this may be another unsolved philosophical proposition.
