Abstract
The issue of biodiversity, and more importantly the protection of biodiversity in the 21st century has become a dominant political issue. The international community has clearly defined objectives regarding the protection of biodiversity at the global level. Many international conferences and conventions have been dedicated to this issue. However, what we intend to explore and attempt to answer is whether or not this policy is sincere in its environmental inspiration as it deals with the protection of the world's natural resources, specifically the countless (unpolitical) species of flora and fauna. We should not forget biodiversity has a very different meaning for biologist that it does for politicians or for politics as a whole. Biodiversity, in politics, is in reality simply a politically correct synonym for natural resources. This understood, biodiversity has a political value if it serves to establish social peace and political stability. Capitalism, as a class society and politic...al order, in practice, shows false concern for biodiversity and nature in general. This paper will layout the basic idea of an alternative society and attitude towards the issue of whether the current thought of biodiversity has its foundation in the ideas of ecosocialism.

Pitanje zaštite biodiverziteta u XXI veku se nameće kao dominantno političko pitanje. Međunarodna zajednica ima jasno definisane ciljeve kada je u pitanju zaštita biodiverziteta na svetskom nivou. Mnoge međunarodne konferencije i konvencije bile su posvećene ovom problemu. Međutim, ono što želimo da istaknemo u ovom radu jeste odgovor na pitanje da li je politika zaista iskrena u svom ekološkom nadahnuću kada je u pitanju zaštita svetskog prirodnog bogatstva oličenog u nebrojeno mnogo vrsta biljnog i životinjskog sveta. Ne treba zaboraviti da za politiku, i naravno za političare, biodiverzitet ima sasvim drugačije značenje od onog koje ono ima za biologa. Biodiverzitet, u politici, realno jeste politički korektan sinonim za prirodne resurse. Tako shvaćen biodiverzitet ima svoju političku upotrebnu vrednost, on služi za uspostavljanje socijalnog mira i političke stabilnosti. Kapitalizam, kao klasno društvo i politički poredak, u praksi pokazuje lažnu brigu za biodiverzitet i prirodu uop...šte. U radu će biti izložene i osnovne ideje alternativnog društva i odnosa prema problemu biodiverziteta kakv se može naći u idejama ekosocijalizma.
