but they are cointaned in the small crate of formal logic

And what is positivism exactly?

its the theory created by theorists such as comte and durkheim

What's the theory?

its basically based on positive affirmations

Im not familiar with Comte or Durkheim

or formal logic

such as

all red crayons are red

but the thing is that this not really apliiable to some modern socialogical principles

including, as you would expect, the socio methabolic structure of capital

they cant accept internal contradictions inside concepts

thus rejecting ontology as a whole

Contradictions like?

they are the extreme opposite of post modernism lets say

Like traditionalism?

not necessarily

Reactionaries?

but like those richard dawkins fanboys

and technocrats

plus social democracy as we know it emerged from positivism

I dont know about that now

a good read on positivism is Engel's anti duhring

Actually nevermind you're right

Noted

he is essentially criticizing a positivist theorist while explaining some dialectical materialist concepts

What was his critiques?

one of his most famous texts "on the origin of the family private property and the state is made from excerpts from anti duhring

@Mr. X to the positivist views of eugen duhring

Not familiar with him either, he's also worth noting then

and why his critiques of marxism were fundamentally wrong

on ontology i already reccomended heavily the ontology of the social being series

I'll definitely need to research both of their critiques.

by lukacs

Also noted

yeah its good to check eugen duhring

although i think you will note how engels overwited him a lot

I havent had much time to read them but I'll do so in the near future

kk

in fact there is a very interesting book on structuralism, positivism and neopositvism by a brazillian marxist too but i dont think it has any translations

@Mr. X and on psychology there are lev vygotsky's works
