What exactly is the Hegelian Dialectic? Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel was a 19th century German philosopher who devised a particular method of argument for resolving disagreements. His method of arriving at “the truth” by exchanging logical arguments is a system of thought process still use to this day.
To put it simply, the basis of Hegelianism assumes that the human mind can’t understand anything unless it can be split into two polar opposites…. Good/Evil, Right/Wrong, Left/Right, Thesis/Antithesis.
For example when people are talking about 2 political parties, what they’re actually referring to – without realising it – is the thesis and the antithesis, based on the Hegelian Dialectic. The only real debate that occurs on any subject relates to the minor differences between those two parties. Nothing is said or done about the issues that neither left or right is discussing. In polarity politics, they control the agenda.
In Australia, this in particular will become more apparent as the election draws near.
Creating a problem to solve
Another form of the Hegelian Dialectic isProblem – Reaction – Solution. Most of us unwittingly fall victim to it all too often. And sadly, if we don’t stop, we will continue to lose our free will and liberties. It has been widely used by our governments and corporations around the world. You could say that in terms of controlling the masses, and society in general, it’s deployment has been an effective tool in keeping humanity in check.
Almost all major events in history employed the Hegelian Dialectic of: Problem – manufacture a crisis or take advantage of one already in place in order to get the desired Reaction of public outcry whereby the public demands a Solution which as been predetermined from the beginning.
