Abstract

Konsumieren und Produzieren sind Formen, in denen sich das Selbst mit seiner Umwelt auseinandersetzt. Konsumieren ist bereits für den nicht-menschlichen Organismus notwendig. Jeder Organismus konsumiert aus seiner Umwelt, seinem äußeren Milieu, um sein inneres Milieu aufrechtzuerhalten. Nur wenige Tierarten wie Biber, Termiten u. Ä. „praktizieren“ dagegen Vorformen von Produktion. Das Konsumieren ist daher für das Reich der Organismen wichtiger als das Produzieren. Man kann überleben, ohne zu produzieren, aber man kann nicht leben, ohne zu konsumieren. Es ist daher deutlich, dass dem Konsum für die menschliche Existenz, aber auch für das Leben anderer Organismen große Bedeutung zukommt.
