| description | Among those authors who write about environmental issues, it is common to refer to Marxism as a theory and philosophy that have nothing to contribute to this discussion. Marxism is seen by them as productivist, anthropocentric and uninterested in the value that nature may present. However, this is a mistaken view. In 1999, two books were published in the United States that demonstrate the error of such a view, and that place the Marxist method and theory in its proper place in relation to environmental issues. These are Paul Burkett's books, Marx and nature. A red and green perspective, which basically deals with Marx’s economic theory in relation to nature, and John Bellamy Foster’s book, Marx’s ecology. Materialism and nature, a study of the philosophical roots and method of historical materialism in relation to nature. These works are complementary, as will be made clear later. |

Dentre aqueles autores que escrevem sobre a questão ambiental, é comum a referência ao marxismo como uma teoria e uma filosofia que nada têm a contribuir para essa discussão. O marxismo é visto, por eles, como produtivista, antropocêntrico e desinteressado pelo valor que a natureza possa apresentar. Porém, trata-se de uma visão equivocada. Em 1999, foram publicados nos Estados Unidos dois livros que demonstram o equívoco de tal visão, e que colocam o método e a teoria marxista em seu devido lugar em relação à questão ambiental. São os livros de Paul Burkett, Marx and nature. A red and green perspective, que trata, basicamente, da teoria econômica de Marx em relação à natureza, e o livro de John Bellamy Foster, Marx’s ecology. Materialism and nature, um estudo das raízes filosóficas e do método do materialismo histórico em relação à natureza. Estas obras são complementares, como ficará explícito mais adiante.
