Local Green Practice

Abstract

This refers to the notion that knowledge and theory derive from practice and in turn they are put back into practice. As Mao Zedong stated, “Knowledge begins with practice. Theoretical knowledge is acquired through practice, and it must then be put back into practice. The active function of knowledge manifests itself not only in the active leap from perceptual to rational knowledge, but—and this is more important—it must manifest itself in the leap from rational knowledge to revolutionary practice.” Mao Zedong also said, “Generally speaking, those that succeed are correct and those that fail are incorrect.” Practice is a criterion not only for testing truth but also for fallacy.
