Xi Jinping's Ecological Civilization:A Novel Contribution to Marxist Theory
Xi Jinping's ecological civilization concept has innovatively enriched and expanded upon Marxism,charting a novel path in the 21st-century Marxist discourse.This conceptual framework has propelled the CPC into a New Ear of understanding ecolog-ical civilization through its six foundational theoretical contributions.These are epitomized by the adage"Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets,"heralding a New Ear where economic progress and environmental conservation go hand in hand.This notion redefines the concepts of well-being and needs,asserting that a pristine ecological environment constitutes the most fundamental public welfare.The idea that"ecological prosperity fosters civilizational prosperity"has elevated the significance of the ecological environment as pivotal to the ascendancy or decline of human civilization.By advocating for"green development,"this approach integrates ecological civilization into the national development strategy at an unprecedented level.Furthermore,it reimagines the objectives of modernization to include"harmony between humans and nature,"thereby setting a new standard for modem development.Lastly,it underscores the necessity for the CPC to strengthen its comprehensive leadership in promoting ec-ological civilization,thus setting new benchmarks for party building in this domain.
