This paper examines the shift in translation theory towards an ecologically oriented approach, emphasizing equality, symbiosis, balance, and harmony. This evolution reflects a departure from the traditional dichotomy of strict adherence to the original text versus the translator's subjectivity, towards a broader ecological perspective. Focusing on the context of China, we explore the development of translation theories from traditional views to ecologization, culminating in the emergence of Eco-Translatology. While Eco-Translatology has made significant strides in advancing translation theory and practice, several research gaps persist, including the need for further exploration of its philosophical foundations, inter-disciplinary intersections, and international dimensions. This study reviews the evolution of translation concepts, highlights the significance of the Chinese perspective in Eco-Translatology's development, and addresses its theoretical limitations and future prospects. It argues for Eco-Translatology's rigorous development to secure its place in global translation discourse, emphasizing that its value lies in its practical utility and applicability beyond Western or Oriental confines. By critically engaging with Eco-Translatology's challenges and potential, this research contributes to advancing the ecological turn in translation studies, proposing it as a dynamic field with global relevance.
