古代的生态维护与文化制衡

古代民族由于所处时空域的限制,不可能全面认识自然生态系统并自觉直接维护生态环境,而是在文化建构的过程中从所处的自然生态系统内人为地分割出一个最适合于本民族生息的区域,按照本民族文化的理解去建构并直接维护本民族特有的民族生境。对生态环境的维护,主要是通过文化制衡来实现的,它具有无意识性、间接性、被动性和区域性。探讨这种生态维护的特点及功效,有助于深化对民族生境的认识并为今天的生态维护提供前人的经验教训。

Ecological protection and cultural restraint and balance in ancient times

The ancient nationalities could not realize perfectly about the natural ecological system and protect the ecological environment voluntarily and directly because of the limitation on time and space. Instead, they were able to find a certain region which was most suitable for living in the natural ecological system in the process of cultural building, and then to build and protect the national habitat which belonged to their own nationality according to their understanding of their nationality's culture.The protection of ecologic was mainly realized by cultural restraint and balance, it had the features of unconsciousness, remoteness ,passivism and regionalism.Exploring the features and functions of this kind of protection is good for deepening the awareness of national habitat and offering predecessor's experience and lessons to nowaday ecological protection
