Connotation of Xi Jinping's Thought on Construction of Ecological Civilization in the New Era

Xi Jinping's thought of socialist ecological civilization with Chinese characteristics for a new era is a scientific theoretical system that integrates Marxist theory, Marxist Sinicization theory, and Chinese traditional thought. It is an enrichment and improvement of Marxist theory. The inheritance and development of the important thinking of the “Three Represents” and the scientific outlook on development are important components of Chinese Marxism in the 21st century. Scientifically grasping the theoretical development roots of Xi Jinping's ecological civilization thought and analyzing the basic laws revealed by it are of great theoretical and practical significance in applying Xi Jinping's new era socialist ecological civilization thought with Chinese characteristics to guide the construction of China's ecological civilization.

Xi Jinping's thought on ecological civilization, as the guiding ideology of China's ecological civilization construction in the new era, has become one of the hot spots in the academic research. Applying the big data method with the help of VOSviewer and SmartAnalyze, the paper has performed a series of analyses of knowledge graph, including the annual publication trends, the subject term expression changes, the subject distribution, the authors co-occurrence and the keywords co-occurrence on 335 published papers from core journals and CSSCI periodicals database regarding the theme of Xi Jinping's thought on ecological civilization. By analyzing the knowledge map, we find that the quantity and quality of research literatures have the tendency of growth, and subject terms become more and more standardized, but the research perspective needs to be broadened. There are more and more exchanges and cooperation between the authors, but in low frequency. Their topics mainly centre around the five aspects of value, connotation, background, path and theory origin of Xi jinping's thought on ecological civilization.

It is crucial to clarify the relationship between ecological industry development and ecological civilization construction, as well as their driving forces, to promote high-quality local development. The ecological environment of the karst region is fragile, and it faces a contradiction between ecological preservation and economic advancement. Coordinating the relationship between economic development and ecological protection is crucial for achieving sustainable development in rural karst regions. This study identified karst characteristics in Guizhou province, China, by constructing an index system for ecological industry development and civilization construction. It employed the entropy weight method to calculate a comprehensive score and utilized a coupling coordination model to analyze interactions and symbiotic coordination. Finally, a linear regression analysis model was employed to analyze the impact of ecological industrial development on the construction of ecological civilization. The results indicate the following: (1) The ecological industry and ecological civilization construction levels exhibited a relatively stable growth trajectory across three research areas from 2011 to 2021, with the ecological civilization construction index outperforming the ecological industry development index. (2) The correlation analysis indicated a relationship between the two indices in the research areas, and the divergence trend among the three research areas rose in a uniform direction, indicating a strong positive correlation between the two indices. From the perspective of the coupling degree (C), the degree of coupling between ecological industry and ecological civilization construction in the three research areas exceeded 0.9, indicating a high level of coordination. This suggests that ecological civilization construction and ecological industry in these research areas are effectively coordinated and exist in a state of harmonious co-promotion. There were differences from the coupling coordination degree (D) perspective, but they increased in the three research areas. (3) The regression analysis results indicate that the per capita agricultural output value, per capita forestry output value, per capita forage industry output value, industrial solid waste utilization rate, energy consumption per unit of GDP, tourism income, rocky desertification level, and proportion of the labor force population with a high school education or higher significantly contribute to the development of ecological civilization. The per capita forestry output value greatly advances ecological civilization, significantly enhancing ecological culture and security. The coefficients are 0.0354 and 0.0393, respectively, indicating that a 1% rise in the per capita forestry output value results in increases of 0.0354% and 0.0393% in the ecological culture and security indices.

Tourism is closely related to it because of its green attribute. It is of great significance to demonstrate whether tourism development can promote the construction of ecological civilization and explore its spatial spillover characteristics. This paper built a theoretical framework of the impact of tourism development on urban ecological civilization construction and spatial spillover effects. The ecological civilization construction level (ECC) of 284 prefecture level and above cities in China from 2004 to 2019 was measured by entropy weight TOPSIS method; The spatial Doberman model is used to reveal the impact of tourism development on the construction of urban ecological civilization and spatial spillover effect. The results show that:(1) the ECC of each city has improved to varying degrees, the relatively high value areas were concentrated along the lower reaches of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River economic belt, and the low value areas were mostly distributed in the central and western regions; On the regional scale, ECC in each region has been in a decreasing pattern of east-middle-west for a long time, and there is an obviously spatial dislocation between the internal differences of regional ECC and the development level of ECC among various regions. (2)Tourism development can significantly promote the construction of ecological civilization in local and adjacent cities, which is embodied in the improvement of the level under the "three wheel drive", and its driving force on the urban economic system is significantly greater than that of the ecological and social system. (3) The impact of tourism development on urban ecological civilization construction and spatial spillover effect in the east, middle and west regions have been released. Under the spatial heterogeneity, the intensity of the two effects basically overlaps with the urban ECC. (4) In terms of policy development, In order to bring into play the industrial externalities of tourism for the construction of ecological civilization, local governments should actively promote the digitalization of tourism and the integration of tourism and cultural industries, based on the principle of "ecological priority" in the long term; on the other hand, Chinese Government need to strengthen the transfer of special funds for tourism and establish a mechanism to support tourism between the eastern and western cities in order to achieve the development of tourism in the western region. 参考文献 相似文献 引证文献

How does ecological civilization construction affect carbon emission intensity? Evidence from Chinese provinces’ panel data

Ecological civilization is a transcendence of industrial civilization. The improvement of China’s ecological civilization system can not only provide developing countries with an empirical reference for ecological civilization construction, but also make a huge contribution to the progress of global ecological civilization. This paper focuses on improving the provincial ecological civilization evaluation system. First, the Provincial Ecological Civilization Construction Evaluation Index System is established according to the Green Development Index System issued by the Chinese government in 2016, and then the applicability of the Spatio-Temporal Factor Analysis (STFA) is verified as the evaluation method of the provincial ecological civilization construction level. Further, taking Jiangsu Province, China as an example, this paper evaluates the level of ecological civilization construction in each city of Jiangsu Province, and analyzes the main factors affecting ecological civilization based on the evaluation results. Finally, according to the relationship between the ecological civilization construction and economic quality of each city, the four-quadrant method is applied to divide Jiangsu Province into four types of regions to help each city position itself in ecological civilization construction. This paper mainly draws the following conclusions: (1) Due to its simple operation and accurate evaluation results, STFA is applicable in evaluating the provincial ecological civilization construction level. (2) Taking Jiangsu Province as an example, it is found that the level of ecological civilization construction in the southwestern region is higher than that of the northeast coastal region in Jiangsu. Three inequality indices are applied to measure the regional inequality of ecological civilization construction among 13 cities, which is relatively high in recent years. (3) By analyzing the results of STFA, it is found that economic quality and natural protection are not only the main factors affecting the ecological civilization construction in Jiangsu province, but also the main reasons for the regional heterogeneity of provincial ecological civilization. (4) For the four types of regions, suggestions are proposed according to the characteristics of each region to help improve the provincial ecological civilization construction level. This paper not only improves China’s ecological civilization construction system, but also provides information for the provincial ecological civilization construction in developing countries.

Accelerating the construction of ecological civilization and promoting the management of health environment problems is one of the core elements of the implementation of the “Beautiful China” and “Healthy China” strategies with Chinese characteristics in the new era. Based on the scientific connotation of ecological civilization, this paper systematically assesses the level of interprovincial ecological civilization construction in China using the combined CRITIC empowerment method and explores the impact of ecological civilization construction on the health burden of urban and rural residents using interprovincial panel data from 2003 to 2018 with the help of panel feasible generalized least squares, simultaneous equation estimation, and the extended regression model. It is found that there is a significant inverted U-shaped relationship between provincial ecological civilization construction and urban and rural residents’ economic health burden, as well as a significant U-shaped relationship between ecological civilization construction and urban and rural residents’ disease burden. Fiscal decentralization, urbanization, and industrialization are the three important indirect mechanisms through which ecological civilization affects the health burden of urban and rural residents, and fiscal decentralization plays a typical role in crowding out the health effect of ecological civilization. In the eastern and central regions, ecological civilization construction has effectively reduced the health burden of urban and rural residents, but it is more significant for improving the economic health burden of rural residents. While the “catching-up trend” of the progress of ecological civilization construction in the western region is obvious, ecological civilization plays an important role in alleviating the economic health burden of urban residents. After the robustness test, the conclusion still holds. This study provides an important empirical basis for local governments to improve the accuracy of their policies in promoting the “Beautiful China” and “Healthy China” strategies.

The ecological civilization is a brand new civilization form that comes after the original civilization, agricultural civilization, and industrial civilization, and its basic value is the realization of continuous prosperity of human and society. The ecological civilization construction is a significant task in the process of Chinese modernization construction of nowadays to future, and it is an inexorable trend to make the concept of ecological civilization integrates into the new rural construction. So, how to construct the new rural under the perspective of ecological civilization is a question that needs to be analyzed in the current theoretical cycle.

The theoretical framework of ecological civilization with Chinese characteristics is rooted in addressing the practical challenges facing China. It integrates the Marxist view of ecological civilization and China's traditional ecological culture into the construction of ecological civilization within the framework of socialism with Chinese characteristics. This article examines pressing issues highlighted in the current ecological civilization construction and provides strategic guidance for building a "Beautiful China". KEYWORDS: Socialism With Chinese Characteristics, Xi Jinping, Ecological Civilization Perspective

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the integration of ecological civilization construction with the development of economy, politics, culture, and society has not only been an established strategy of deepening and consolidating the “five-sphere integrated plan” of socialism with Chinese characteristics, but it has also been an important approach to achieve ecological civilization. In order to realize it, “integration” is the living soul. Integration means that on one hand, ecological civilization construction should be in step with economic and social development; on the other hand, it is inherent with the strategic thinking that priority should be given to ecology and environmental protection. This paper explains how ecological civilization construction is integrated with economic development and also discusses its strategies and paths. The findings are as follows: The first is to cling to the bottom line that no major ecological disasters should happen. This requires adherence to the basic state policy of environmental protection, restructuring of conventional industries and transformation of development patterns. The second is to adhere to the philosophy that industrialization, urbanization, informatization, agricultural modernization and greenization be promoted simultaneously, so that they can complement with the “five-sphere integrated plan”. This requires that a green, low carbon, and recyclable path should be pursued. The third is to stay open and forward-looking. In the new era of ecological civilization with new fashion and trends, active measures should be taken to build a modern ecological and industrial development system in order to lay a solid foundation for ecological civilization construction.

Rural revitalization strategy is the basis of promoting the comprehensive construction of a well-off society. It aims to achieve the harmonious coexistence between man and nature and realize the green development of rural areas by creating a new ecological and livable rural development model. Implementing the rural revitalization strategy is an important deployment to promote the construction of socialist ecological civilization, and ecological revitalization is the key to implementing the rural revitalization strategy. To effectively integrate the construction of ecological civilization into all aspects and the whole process of economic construction, we need to deal with the cooperative governance relationship among government, market, social organizations and the public. At present, the requirements of rural ecological civilization construction in China are well known, but the forces that hinder and destroy the construction of rural ecological civilization still exist. Based on the perspective of multiple cooperative governance, this paper discusses the value status and path selection of rural ecological revitalization in the implementation of Rural Revitalization Strategy, so as to realize the win-win strategy of multiple subjects, and construct the multi subject collaborative governance to promote the construction of ecological civilization in China.

2007年中国政府提出“生态文明”建设以来，已批准了三批52个生态文明建设试点。生态系统与社会经济发展的复杂性要求科学、客观地评估区域生态文明建设，以便科学地决策和行动。区域生态文明建设是一个复合的过程，其核心在于社会-经济-自然复合生态系统各组分的和谐进步。因此，基于生态系统服务（ES）、生态足迹（EF）和人均GDP3个指标，以及这3个指标所代表的资源禀赋、人类对自然生态系统的占用、经济增长之间的线性逻辑关系，构建综合性相对指数；并以此对2010年中国大陆各省（市、直辖市）的生态文明建设水平进行了综合评估，其中，海南省的生态文明建设指数最大，为0.5091，北京市的指数最小，为0.0377；最后，分析了2010年中国大陆各省（市、区）生态文明建设的生态压力和生态效率，北京、天津和上海3个直辖市处于低资源禀赋高资源消费状况，全国大多数省（市、区）处于低消耗和低产出的阶段，经济增长尚有较大的潜力。;As the demand for natural resources is growing rapidly, along with rapid population growth, ecological and environmental problems have increasingly become the bottlenecks of sustainable development of China. In 2007, the Chinese government put forward ecological civilization construction, and now 52 cities have been selected as Ecological Civilization Cities pilot sites. Recently, it also proposed to Vigorously Promote the Construction of Ecological Civilization, which means ecological civilization should be conducted with the civilization of politics, economy, society and culture, simultaneously and equally importantly. With the concept of balancing the relationship between society development and nature protection, ecological civilization construction has already guided local sustainable development in many regions. However, due to the complexity of ecosystems and socioeconomic systems, it needs to scientifically evaluate the progress of regional ecological civilization construction. Then, it can help decision-makers and also can scientifically guide local sustainable development. Ecological civilization construction is an integrated process, and its core content is to keep in harmony development of all the components in the complex social-economic-natural ecosystems. Therefore, in this paper, s ecosystem services (ES), ecological footprint (EF) and gross domestic product (GDP) were selected in order to reflect the resource endowment, human occupation on natural capital, and the economic growth. Thus, an integrated indicator was constructed from the three indexes based on the linear correlation among them, an integrated indicator was constructed, which can comprehensively evaluate local ecological civilization construction. <br>Based on the integrated indicator, 31 provinces were assessed on their progress of ecological civilization construction in China, in 2010. Then, we calculated ecosystem services, ecological index and the integrated indicator in each province. According to the results, we finally analyzed their ecological efficiency and ecological pressure during the process of ecological civilization construction. The results showed that Hainan province has the biggest indicator of 0.5091 while Beijing has the smallest indicator of 0.0377, which meant the potential capacity of ecological civilization construction of Hainan province is largest while Beijing had the least potential. This paper also analyzed the ecological efficiency and ecological pressure of ecological civilization construction of each province in China. It illustrated that, if human occupation on natural capital was low in one region, it can provide more goods and services to promote local sustainable development thanks to its healthy ecosystem; if human occupation is on a high level, its sustainable development capacity was relatively worse although the local ecosystem services were higher. However, if human occupation reached a very high level, their local development relied heavily on external input, and their sustainability was the worst.

College students are an important group among young people and can become the fresh force in the process of ecological civilization in the future. Strengthening the cultivation of the ecological civilization thought of college students and promoting the ecological civilization thought of college students are the requirements of the development of the times. Through the analysis of the present situation of the thought of ecological civilization of contemporary college students, we can innovate the educational path of ecological civilization, further promote the thought of ecological civilization of college students, and make college students become the main disseminator of ecological civilization thought and the practitioner of ecological civilization construction.

According to the research on the relationship between rural finance and farmers’ income growth by domestic scholars, there are certain disadvantages in the stationary test, model design, data collection of time series data. According to the data from 1992 to 2005, per capita net income of farmers (y), rural credit investment (i), structure of rural employees (S) and price index of agricultural products (P) are selected as four indices. Eviews 5.0 software is used to analyze the relationship between rural financial development and income growth. OLS regression mode is established by Granger causality test, ADF test and co-integration relation test. Result shows that test statistic value is -2.8718, which is smaller than the -1.9710 critical value at 5% significant level. Thus, the residual sequence is a stationary sequence, indicating that there is co-integration relationship among per capita net income of farmers, rural credit investment, structure of rural employees and price index of agricultural products. It is put forward that we should accelerate the development of rural finance and reinforce the support for rural credit in order to improve farmers’ income.

In recent years, under the background that the country gradually attaches importance to ecological civilization accomplishment and strengthens the construction of ecological civilization system, ecological civilization construction has become an important part of Chinese social governance, and ecological civilization education in colleges and universities has also received continuous attention. As a national pilot zone for ecological civilization, Hainan Province has concentrated advantages in environmental resources and is a key player in promoting ecological civilization in the construction of free trade ports. In this context, as the main front of talent training, colleges and universities should actively play the role of educating people on their intellectual bases. They should not only do a good job in ecological civilization education and promote the construction of the strategic quality of ecological civilization in the whole society but also give full play to the positive role of ecological civilization in economic construction and social development. As the construction of ecological civilization continues to progress, various entities have made some degree of progress in the field of ecological civilization education. Firstly, the government has continued to improve the top-level design and accelerate the construction of ecological civilized policy systems and ideological systems; secondly, universities have co-ordinated and civilization the allocation of disciplines, strengthened the concept of research and study and expanded practical platforms; thirdly, the public has actively participated in creating a favourable atmosphere in society as a whole to advocate ecological civilization and promote the integration and coordination of various educational resources. But at the same time, the development of ecological civilization education also faces many difficulties. First, the depth of theoretical research is insufficient, the discipline barrier has not been broken through, and the educational results have little effect. Second, the policy system needs to be improved, the educational logic is not clear, and the policy framework needs to be optimized. Third, the orientation of education is fuzzy, personnel training lags, and the transformation of practice is hindered seriously. Fourth, the main body of education is dislocated and lacking, the potential of resources is weak, and the integration still needs to be strengthened. Based on this, this paper analyzes the implementation of ecological civilization education in 21 universities in Hainan Province through field research, summarizes the current dilemmas and problems in ecological civilization education, attempts to strengthen the cause-effect orientation, deepen the theoretical construction of ecological civilization education in universities on the premise of clarifying the correlative influences of ecological awareness and participation behaviour, actively explores the effective path of cultivating ecological awareness among university students, and provides benefits for the construction of ecological civilization in Hainan Province and the development of Hainan's free trade port.
