Economics in Dialectical Dialect

Journal of Political Economy, 1976
Of the full-dress introductions to economics or political economy that I have yet seen, this one is by all odds the most peculiar and idiosyncratic.

Immigrants from one dialect region to another acquire features of the new dialect with varying degrees of proficiency.

Creativity and dialectical phenomena: From dialectical edge to dialectical space

The International Journal of Psychoanalysis, 2007
The seeds of creativity have the potential to germinate and flourish within the rich, ambiguous and unsettling tapestry of the core dialectical tensions related to the central organizing dialectic, life and death, generated in the patient-analyst relating.

THE DIALECTICS OF JAMESON'S DIALECTICS

History and Theory, 2012

Pragma-Dialectics and Pragma-Dialectics

2011
The hypothesis of this chapter is that the Pragma-Dialectical theory is one particular version—the Amsterdam version—of a general pragma-dialectical type of theory. It is thus possible to accept the general theory without accepting every feature of the specific instance of that theory, but not conversely.
