Talk:Polylogism

Hello,

Recently I created an artcle "Polylogism" in Russian Wikipedia, and I would like to broaden it by giving some information of how this idea worked in the USSR (perhaps, you know, that there were persecutions on "formal logic" in the USSR), but I understood unexpectedly that I can't find any mentionings of this in the books by Mises. Can anybody help me? I need a reference where Mises or his followers discuss (or mention) this problem.

Thank you in advance. Eozhik (talk) 10:35, 31 October 2013 (MSK)

Most notably, Marxian polylogism is discussed in Human Action. http://mises.org/humanaction/chap3sec2.asp Nathan Larson (talk) 10:55, 31 October 2013 (MSK)

Thank you, Nathan for your prompt reply! Yes, I have this book, but it is strange for me that Mises does not mention in this connection the Hegelian dialectics and its role in persecutions of what marxists called "formal" logic. (I hope, you know that in the USSR the usual logic was called "old-fashioned", "metaphysical", and it was difficult to protect it, even mathematical logic was considered as suspicios, "non-proletarian"). Or I missed something? Eozhik (talk) 11:15, 31 October 2013 (MSK)
