减物质化是经济发展与生态环境压力之间耦合关系发生破裂的现象,是对人与自然关系的形象解读,是可持续发展思想的充分体现。该理论把经济系统视为生态经济系统的子系统,充分体现生态环境承载力对经济系统的规模限制,对于我国转变经济发展方式,降低经济增长的资源环境代价,建设生态文明具有重要意义。本文对该领域的主要文献进行了梳理,对不同的观点进行比较,并紧密结合我国基本国情,提出减物质化研究几点思考,以期为进一步研究提供新的思路。
Dematerialization is a phenomenon in which the relationship between economic development and environmental pressure is decoupled. It is a visual description of the relationship between human and nature and it embodies the concept of sustainable development. The theory of dematerialization in which the economic system is considered as a subsystem of the whole eco-economic system stresses the role of ecological carrying capacity in controlling the scale of economic development. The proposal and application of dematerialization are significant in accelerating the transformation of economic growth mode, reducing the environmental cost and building the ecological civilization. In this paper, different researches on dematerialization are summarized and some suggestions are put forward to give a new direction for future research.
