傣族“龙山林”文化禁忌与边疆生态环境的安全

每个民族在和自然打交道的过程中都形成了自己独特的生态智慧。生活在热带雨林地区的傣族更是如此。傣族人民认为,"龙山林"是神灵居住的地方,正是出于对神灵的敬畏,人们不能随便在"龙山林"中砍伐树木、猎捕动物和开垦土地,从而也就最有效地保护了动植物的多样性及整个生态安全。傣族人民在处理人与自然关系中形成的这一"龙山林"文化现象,本质上是一种对自然的禁忌,它在当地的生态环境保护中起到了重要的作用,对我们思考如何保护生态环境有着重要的借鉴意义。

Dai People's Cultural Taboo to "Longshan Forest" and Security of Frontier Ecology

Every nation has shaped its own specific ecological wisdom during the process of dealing with the nature,and this is particularly the case with the Dai People who live in the tropical rainforest.The Dai People believe that"Longshan Forest"is the place where their God lives.They are in awe of the God,so they can not cut trees,hunt animals,or open up fields there.Consequently,the variety of animals and plants,and the security of ecology have been well protected.The Dai people have hence formed their"Longshan Forest"culture,which is essentially a cultural taboo to the nature.It has played an important role in protecting the local ecology and has great significance for the ecological environment.
