Dialectic: New Dialectic
built 486 days ago
The Dialectic is the annual University of New Hampshire's undergraduate philosophy journal. Founded in 1969 under the title "The Monad" and known in later years as "Dasein"('89) and "Zeitgeist"('92), the journal has traditionally published papers, poetry, artwork, and photographs. Submissions have usually been accepted in April, selected by voting by several student editors and staff, and published in early May.

For Dialectic stage children, Year 3 history studies introduce new threads as students go into depth on some of the "not so nice" parts of this century. Youths learn about presidents of the United States, the geo-political development of the United States, inventions and inventors of the 1900's, the Civil War, the Pioneers, the fate of Native Americans, modern missionaries sent out from England, and other major figures in US history from this period. They ... learn more about the history and geography of Australia, Africa and the Far East. They will begin to be confronted with some adult themes: slavery, oppression, poverty and urban problems, great wealth and its follies and responsibilities. Themes from Year 2 (of man's self-reliance on human wisdom and rejection of a loving servant relationship with Him) are seen to bring ever more erroneous thinking. Romans 1:21-22 is the summary verse for this year's study.

"New Dialectic rides the eclectic wave: Colorado-based group New Dialectic are on a roll and riding a wave of momentum that has seen good airplay on local radios and strong support among the college crowds. With a style that can swing between raucous rock to intimate jazz sessions, New Dialectic plays for the crowd and the venue."

Appreciating the The Negative is critical to the New Dialectic. The Negative berates the existing state of affairs and seeks to break down the habits of common sense thought. The New Dialecticians enjoy dumping heavy sarcasm and ridicule on their enemy. Their purpose is to demolish existing thought, not to speak truth, which is always yet to come. What the traditional thinker might interpret as slander, the negative thinker justifies as a necessary dialectical tactic. Negative criticism is a necessary stage in man’s realization of himself.
