Document Summary
But the dialectic also occurs in the same nature, above all, engels tried to explain in his dialektik der natur. This means that in nature the fundamental laws of dialectics also apply, thus falsifying the old idea that "na- turality does not make jumps". The law of conversion of quantity into quality. It is also known as the law of "quantum leap". When quantity (for example, temperature) increases gradually, there is a moment when the previous quality (water) suddenly changes (in a jump) to another quality (steam). This law occurs in the so- cial realm as the "revolutionary" leap, once sufficient social tension has been reached. According to the dialectic, each entity and each. 1 event also "contains" (aufheben) one or other of its opposites. Each antithesis is a negation (or contradiction) of the thesis; therefore the synthesis (which is a thesis to a superior child) is the "negation of the negation".
