ECOLOGICAL GLOBALISATION, CARE FOR ENVIRONMENT AND SOCIAL THEORY

Abstract

The analysis of the ecological aspects of globalisation is moving into two directions of thinking. The first is the characteristics of the ecological globalisation and the effects on the life's environment, on the whole people s lives in developed and undeveloped countries and the possibility to build a sustainable society. The second direction is moving toward planning of some principles of the green social theory or greening the social theory. The endangering of the life's environment surpasses the national and local borders-the danger over the environment makes over national problems that presuppose a radical change in the way of their resolving. In the base of the social theory on environment is the intention to surpass the detachment of a human being and culture from the nature and that the socio-environmental relations are the consistent part of the mankind. Two other important elements are attached: moral element, that comes out from the way a human being treats the environment (nature) and the time dimension (framework) in relation to the care for future generations.
