Summary

In the present Dissertation dialectical logic is examined as a developmental process. Specifically, the structural transformations of dialectical logic are examined within the process of its historical development, from the point of view of the relation between the logical and the historical. Thus, an attempt to detect and examine the mechanism of the development of dialectical logic is to be undertaken. Dialectical logic is examined as a methodology of scientific research, meaning as a methodology of examining the organic whole, which has the form of the ascent from the abstract to the concrete. Hence, our research here focuses exclusively on those philosophical and scientific works in which dialectical logic has the form of the ascent from the abstract to the concrete. Until the current stage of development in philosophy and science, the only works in which dialectical logic takes the form of the ascent from the abstract to the concrete is Hegel’s entire philosophical system, which is summarized in pure form in his “Science of Logic»”, Κ. Marx’s “Capital” and V.A. Vazulin’s “Logic of History”. Therefore, the examination of dialectical logic as a developmental process takes place through the three aforementioned works. In other words, this Ph.D Dissertation examines how dialectical logic is evolving from the “Science of Logic” to the “Capital” and from the latter to the “Logic of History”.This Dissertation is divided into three main parts. In the first part (Unit 1) dialectic is defined as a method of scientific research, and the wider law-governed movement, through which it emerged, is depicted. The relation between the logical and the historical is determined and analyzed, as well as the development of the philosophical conception of historicity, which is essential aspect of dialectical logic. The second part (Units 2,3,4,5,) undertakes a comparative examination between “Science of Logic”, “Capital” and “Logic of History” concerning the position and the role of specific logical categories, as well as specific moments of the development of dialectic. On the basis of this comparative examination, basic conclusions are drawn about the relation between the logical and the historical and the composition and structure of dialectical logic. The third part (Unit 6) utilizes the main findings of the above comparative examination, and draws general conclusions about dialectical logic’s becoming, about the mechanism of its development, while some hypothesis are formulated concerning the possibilities of its further development. The main contribution and originality of this Ph.D Dissertation lies in examining the specific historical process of dialectical logic, seen as methodology of scientific research, and in determining the mechanism of its development.
