Ecological Marxism is an important product of the Western green political movement and one of the most influential schools of Western Marxism. It takes Marx's discourse on the relationship between human beings and nature as an important source, the Frankfurt School's theory of ecological crisis as a direct source, and the theoretical achievements of ecology and futurology as an indirect source, and melts the theoretical tone of ecological Marxism. Retracing the ideological sources of ecological Marxism has important theoretical significance for us to understand the new development of Western Marxism, and also has important practical significance for the construction of ecological civilization in our new era and the new socialist movement in the world.
