Summary/Abstract: As the liberal and the welfare state, and this modern, neoliberal capitalism in their relation to man and nature are destructive. Favoring the interests of private property and profit, capitalism denies authentic human needs, destroys and devastates nature. The degradation of nature, environmental problems and ecological crises, are developing risks that challenge not only the sustainability and sustainable development, but also life itself. Welfare state capitalism and the neoliberal state capitalism are destructive.
