Abstract
Political view on the nature is an attempt to define a scope for human intervention into the world of nature, and rather giving an answer to the problem how far the nature can be regarded as reality independent from human being. Major factors determining political way of defining the nature are: the idea of ecological survival and the idea of implementation of technology and improving the society. They result in destruction of harmony between the human being and the nature, eroded trust compensated with growth of various systems of technical control, favoring experts-bureaucrats using their strategic game as a management tool.
From the political aspect, nature is a product of the society. Its form is a result of interaction driven by human in the area of nature as well as society where human or nature wellbeing is less important. The expert-bureaucrat’s victory has the priority (like completion of technological project, staying in power, etc..). The way of achieving the goal is based on a calculated risk strategy. Such a strategy is odd and against the sustainable development fundamentals.
