讲座主要内容：

I contend that ecosystem is under-theorised and underestimated as most ecosystem studies only take ecosystem as a novel setting of mature research topics. I propose paying more attention to the ecosystem entity itself and delving into its deeps structures that underline ecosystem mechanisms. To do so, a critical realism ontology should be adopted, as opposed to structuralism and structurationism. Two generic ecosystem strategies based on this approach will be presented.
