Development Paradigm

In the context of integrating the ecological development into all aspects and the whole process of economic, political, cultural and social development, and striving to create a new era of China’s socialist ecological civilization, one important aspect is that we need to construct a paradigm transformation theory for the development of ecological civilization. In establishing theories for the paradigm of ecological development, what we need most is an economic theory. However, the problem is that traditional and conventional economics, including political economics, cannot provide theoretical and methodological support for the current ecological development in China or even the world. Based on the concept, cognition and China’s practice of ecological civilization, the author reflects on the economic theory and its development direction in future.

According to Chinese President Xi Jinping’s report at the 19th CPC National Congress, realizing China’s great dream in the new era demands a great struggle, a great project, and a great cause. In terms of the construction of ecological civilization, entering a new era means China must ensure the harmony between man and nature, and undertake “a great struggle with many new contemporary features”, in response to major difficulties and challenges in nature. To realize the Chinese Dream of national rejuvenation requires a clear understanding of the “Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era and the Basic Policy” introduced at the 19th CPC National Congress that involves such concepts as the vision for development, fundamental rules, environmental ethics, the rule of law, the model, objectives and driving forces of development, ways of life, and global governance. Based on the connotations of such concepts, the ecological civilization can systemically grasp the basic strategy for building a socialist ecological civilization with Chinese characteristics. This paper discusses the cognition of building an ecological civilization in the new era, examines the development paradigm of ecological civilization from the perspectives of ethical values, value theory and principles of growth, and specifies the strategic measures for building an ecological civilization in light of the new circumstances and demands.

Development Paradigm

Nature, especially organic lives within it, is capable of self-regulation and regeneration from damages. However, if the rate of human exploitation surpasses that of natural regeneration, problems such as environmental pollution, ecological destruction and resource degradation will occur. The author argues that nature needs compensation in a certain form and ratio for its production. Eco-compensation is a form of reimbursement in the name of protection to owners of eco-properties, but not to nature’s production. The true compensation should give nature a break by substituting natural products with manufacturing artifacts and utilizing social outcomes to restore ecosystem, cope with emergencies and preserve nature. The bottom line of maintaining the simple reproduction of life members in the ecosystem is the minimum standard of nature participating in distribution, namely the ecological red line. The sustainable development paradigm of ecological civilization requires that nature shares a certain proportion of the outcome of natural and social production so as to build a long-term mechanism for ecological security.

The Arab uprisings have laid bare the abyss between the rhetoric and reality of the dominant development paradigm in the region. It is widely agreed that socioeconomic discontent was a major cause of the uprisings. An early slogan raised at the start of the uprising in Tunisia was “employment is a right, you gang of thieves”. The slogan contrasted the denied universal right to employment with the actual accumulation of illicit privileges by a narrow minority.

Development Paradigm

Preview of Himalayan perceptions: Environmental change and the well-being of mountain peoples by JD Ives Routledge, London and New York To be published in August 2004 Himalayan Perspectives returns to the enormously popular development paradigm that Ives dubbed the ‘Theory of Himalayan Degradation’. According to this seductive construct, poverty and overpopulation in the Himalayas was leading to degradation of highland forests, erosion, and downstream flooding. In the ‘Himalayan Dilemma’, Ives and Messerli exposed this “Theory” as a dangerous collection of assumptions and misrepresentations. While most scholars in the field promptly conceded Ives and Messerli’s points, the Theory has somehow survived as the guiding myth of development planners and many government agencies. In his new book, Ives returns to drive a stake through the heart of this revenant. His book not only reviews the research that, over the past 15 years, has confirmed the arguments of the ‘Himalayan Dilemma’; it also takes a close look at all those destructive factors that were overlooked by the conveniently simplistic ‘Theory of Himalayan Environmental Degradation’: government mismanagement, oppression of mountain minorities, armed conflict, and inappropriate tourism development.
