Abstract

According to the classics of Marx's philosophy, human being is a part of nature and the nature is the inorganic body of people Hence, all of people acts that destroy nature also destruct themselves and people will have to pay the price undoubtedly. These viewpoints are still relevant to these days, especially in the context that human life is threatened and ravaged by environmental pollution and climate change caused by human activities. The article focuses on generalizing the basic views of K.Marx and F.Engels on the relationship between humans and nature. By doing so, it analyzes the application of this viewpoint to sustainable development in Vietnam today on a basis of properly resolving the relationship between humans and nature.
