The dialectical relationship between consciousness and practical activities means that conscious activities develop practical activities, and vice versa, in a continuous feedback loop.Figure 5 - 30:39
The dialectical relationship between consciousness and practical activity is what drives the development of humanity. We imagine better ways of doing things, then test those ideas against reality through practical activity.Footnotes

Empirical and theoretical consciousness have a dialectical relationship in which empirical consciousness and theoretical consciousness lead to and mutually develop one another.Figure 3 - 29:39
Empirical consciousness and theoretical consciousness have a dialectical relationship with one another. Our observations of the material world lead to conscious activity which we then test in reality through conscious activity, and so on, in a never-ending cycle of dialectical development.Figure 4 - 35:55
Ordinary consciousness refers to the passive observation of reality which takes place in our daily lives. Scientific consciousness refers to the systematic application of consciousness to solve specific problems in a methodological manner. -

Chapter 3: Cognitive Theory of Dialectical MaterialismFigures:
Figure 1 - 2:47
An overview of various forms of negation as they relate to dialectical development.Figure 2 - 3:18
Replacement negation refers to the replacement of one thing, phenomenon, or idea with another through dialectical negation.Figure 3 - 4:33
Terminal negation refers to the end of a specific cycle of development.Figure 4 - 8:29
The metaphysical perspective of terminal negation views negation as an essentially terminal process representing the end point of the existence of a static and isolated thing, phenomenon, or idea.Figure 5 - 23:32
A common misperception of dialectical development is that it is “fully negative,” insomuch as the initial thesis (initial subject) is completely negated by the antithesis (impacting subject). In fact, characteristics from both the thesis and antithesis are carried forward into the synthesis.Figure 6 - 25:17
In materialist dialectics, it is understood that negation is a process of retention: characteristics from both the thesis (initial subject) and antithesis (impacting subject) are retained in the resulting synthesis.Figure 7 - 30:52
The metaphysical “line development” model sees an initial form as being “replaced” or entirely negated into a completely distinct entity.Figure 8 - 33:05
The “Spiral Development” model of materialist dialectics sees every stage of development as a higher form of the previous stage which carries forward characteristics from previous stages.Figure 9 - 37:30
The cyclical pattern of development is an abstract pattern of dialectical change over time.Figure 10 - 38:56
In this example, a new car goes through a cyclical pattern of development in which the third form (new steel) possesses characteristics of the first form (a new car).Figure 11 - 39:40
The development of class structure is a dialectical process in which different classes synthesize to form the next era of class society. For example, the capitalist class emerged primarily as a synthesis of the feudal lords and peasants of the medieval era.Footnotes:

Chapter 3: Cognitive Theory of Dialectical MaterialismFigures:
Figure 1 - 3:06
In the metaphysical conception of contradiction, the negated “disappears” and is not represented in the resulting synthesis.Figure 2 - 4:05
The materialist dialectical conception of contradiction recognizes that contradicting subjects are defined by their relationship and that the synthesis of the contradiction carries forward attributes and characteristics from both the negator and the negated.Figure 3 - 18:03
War, disease, and economy are all examples of unity in contradiction.Figure 4 - 25:43
Relative Unity refers to the temporary and relative nature of specific relationships which define and unify specific contradictions; Absolute Struggle refers to the permanent, constant nature of development through contradiction.Figure 4 - 25:43
The relationship between relative unity and absolute struggle defines and drives change, motion, and development through contradiction.Footnotes:

Figure 1 - 21:04
The quantity range is a range of quantities between quality shifts.Figure 2 - 22:30
Figure 3 - 23:12
A quality shift occurs when a quantity changes beyond a threshold, leading to a change in quality.Figure 4 - 24:53
The Quantity Range (A) refers to the range of quantities between two qualities in the process of development. The Quality Shift (B) refers to the point at which quantity accumulates to the point of changing the Quality of the developing subject. The Period of Motion (C) includes both the quantity range and the quality shifts themselves.Figure 5 - 30:04
Quality refers to the differences which are distinguished in human consciousness between one subject and another, or changes in a subject’s form over time.Footnotes:

All private subjects have attributes in common with other private subjects.Figure 5 - 10:04
All things, phenomena, and ideas contain the unique, the private, and the common.Figure 6 - 12:27
“Unique” things, phenomena, and ideas can become “common” through development processes (and vice-versa).Figure 7 - 27:23
Dialectical analysis of private and common characteristics involves observing private subjects to determine common attributes and considering common attributes to gain insights about private subjects.Footnotes:

Figure 1 - 2:02
In the process of development, Quantity Change leads to Quality Change.
Figure 2 - 3:40
All of these have the quality of water because of the molecular quantities of hydrogen and oxygen atoms, however, from the perspective of volume, quantity changes still lead to quality changes.Figure 3 - 5:21
The same human being will undergo various quality changes as age quantity increases over time.
Figure 4 - 6:09
Metaphysics only consider linear properties of quantity change; Materialist Dialectics takes quantity changes and quality shifts into consideration when considering change over time.Figure 5 - 8:06
The concept of “change” in materialist dialectics centers on internal and external relationships causing mutual impacts which lead to quantity changes which build into quality shifts.Figure 6 - 10:34
Both flooding and flood recession are development processes with the same forward tendency. Flood recession may appear to be a “reversal,” but it is in fact forward development.Figure 7 - 14:08
Dialectical Development consists of Quantity and Quality Shifts, which in turn derive from motion.Footnotes:

Figure 1 - 0:39
The Principle of General Relationships and the Principle of Development are the most basic principles of materialist dialectics. These two principles are dialectically related to one another.Figure 2 - 5:40
Figure 3 - 7:14
Figure 4 - 10:28
An infinite diversity of relationships exist within the unity of the material world.Figure 5 - 11:14
Universal relationships which unite all things, phenomena, and ideas manifest in infinitely diverse ways.Figure 6 - 13:02
All things, phenomena, and ideas have the relative characteristic of objectiveness.Figure 7 - 13:42
Alice and Bob are external to one another; each is objective from the other’s perspective.Figure 8 - 14:14
The relationship between Alice and Bob has objective characteristics to both Alice and Bob.Figure 9 - 24:14
The comprehensive viewpoint sees the subject in terms of all of its internal and external relationships.Figure 10 - 47:47
A historical viewpoint focuses on the roles and positions of relationships and properties of subjects as well as their development over time.Footnotes:

Human language and human labor mutually develop one another through a dialectical process to develop human nature. Simultaneously, human nature and human society mutually develop one another through a dialectical process.Footnotes:
