In this book, I deal with some fundamental problems of the Hegelian
dialectic. For this purpose, I take a middle course between total
scepticism, which considers dialectic as a devastator sophistry
with no respect even for the non-contradiction principle, and
authoritarian dogmatism, which claims to solve any question with
the magic wand of the Hegelian Aufhebung. That is, I decide to be
critical, defining concepts anew, bringing out sources, determining
conditions of possibility and fields of validity, accepting or
rejecting when necessary. Following G. R. G. Mure's thinking, from
an inner point of view I examine whether, in carrying out his work,
Hegel remains faithful to the different principles he proclaims,
and I find substantial deviations. And, following W. Becker's
thinking, from an external point of view, that is, from a formal,
empirical or existential contemporary angle, I try to determine the
extent to which we may legitimately talk about the fruitfulness of
Hegelian dialectic. In this way, I reconstruct Hegel's thought so
that it may become acceptable to us-readers of the
twentieth-century-as intelligible and coherent as possible. I
conclude that dialectic, as a logic of human reality, has to be
grasped and expressed from the viewpoint of the particular
historical individual, in constant interaction with the cultural
environment of his or her time. Using this approach, I investigate
the questions at issue from Hegel's Logic point of view.
