Subject: BHA: Re: Begin the Dialectic Date: Mon, 12 Jul 1999 16:38:07 -0400 Hi Gary-- I think that was a really fine synopsis on the dialectic and its relation to the levels of DCR, and no, I don't remember you posting it previously. Maybe it should go on the CR web site? One small note: you rightly emphasize that for RB, totality is radically open. There appears to be a word missing in your paragraph, so maybe this is what you meant to say, but I think it's useful to bear in mind that RB often talks about *partial* totalities, examples of which include societies and individuals. Also, do you have any suggestions on how the (to me, still quite sketchy) fifth level of DCR fits into RB's concept of dialectic?
