Abstract

The implementation of the modern postulate of scientific and technical progress is considered the main cause of the ecological crisis. This study aims to show that – despite the authors ecologizing Karl Marx's thought – his philosophy continues to call for the well-being of nations through the ruthless use of nature and justifies progress understood in terms of imperialist anthropocentric subordination of nature to man, contributing to further deepening the feeling of alienation from nature and the disappearance of any respect for it.

Keywords:

anthropocentrism, Marxism, environmental crisis, Karl Marx
