Dialectics-Polialectics Interferences

A category may be virtual or without virtual (A or A’) in Aristo’s analytical dialectics. Virtue is without virtue (A = A’) in Lao Tzu’s synthetic dialectics.

Decadance is a contingency too, as much as synthesis in triadic dialectics of Hegel (as taken from Kant). Anti-thesisses contradict, conflict, and synthesized in Marx’s dialectical materialism.

Till here all have been positive dialectics.

Contradictions and conflicts are weighed without mixed, one side of contradiction is carried through most extreme case without help of other side in Adorno’s negative dialectics.

Till here all have been straight dialectics.

Anti-thesisses don’t close to each other, remains far or grows distant in counter-dialectics. This a valid situation, not coherent one. It is observed that all deviants exhibit enmity and attack to each other in polycultural societies, like in Turkey in Republic Period.

Till here all have been dialectics.

There are 3 couples of thesis/anti-thesis in Ursula K. Le Guin’s Dispossessed. They contradict and conflict, but not synthesized. Fourth category enters into the argumentation (and end of the story remains fuzzy). She doesn’t call so, but we can call it trialectics.

If there is a tao from 2 to 3, there may be from 3 to 4 and/or to the infinity. We may call polialectics after third road. We may define ‘n’ times of dualities, i.e. dialectics in this situation. Contradictions of a category with itself is the problem of identity principle. Nobody from Aristo to Adorno argues identity principle. It may be argued too but in another essay.
