Бесплатный доступ

The relevance of the problem of ecological justice is explained by its direct connection with the most important factors of our time - the release of humanity beyond the carrying capacity of the natural environment and threats to his very life on Earth; as well as the crisis of human relations, transformed by their interaction with natural, artificial and social habitats; clarification of the prerequisites for the emergence of this problem; penetration into its subject-object essence; the study of the objective and subjective factors acting on it; development of proposals to remove this problem from the public agenda. The results of the study showed that the reasons for its unresolved lie in the principles of the unjust organization of modern society, approved universally by the liberal ideology. The latter proclaims the priority of economic interests over social and ecological ones, within the framework of economic law ecological and social justice are formalized and, as a result, socio-ecological conflicts are reproduced daily. The responsibility for this conflict lies primarily with the societal formations of society - classes that occupy top status positions in society, which, despite the crisis of the natural environment, continue to support the way of life of saprophytes that are destructive for themselves and for nature, and that, ignoring the interests of other social formations; for the purpose of their economic benefits, they shape the personalities of consumers who are limited in their ability to have a deep awareness of the ecological problem. Thus, the current situation indicates a crisis above all in the social environment. As conclusions, the article proposes the reconstruction of a capitalist society, the laws of which are incompatible with the laws of nature, and contradict the ecological interests of most social entities in different countries, on the basis of replacing it with a more perfect society, capable of implementing ecological justice and ecological freedom.
