Main entry
- Against Avakianism [1]
Motifs or claims
- The resolution of social contradictions is a kind of inevitability; the action of necessity inside contradictions produces particular results under particular conditions unless stopped -> this sounds like a form of determinism to me. I am not sure why this book is against determinism and thinks just bringing up 'determinism' is an insult when necessity and determinism should functionally be the same thing.
Motifs or claims (Avakian)
- absolute determinism / the philosophically unsound conception of 'inevitability' (Avakian) / Stalin's mechanical views (?) (Ajith) -> I think these two authors are just talking past each other, actually. they both seem to have very similar opinions about absolute determinism — inevitability exists in a form that isn't "mechanical" — except that one of them got upset because the other one misread Marx. putting that aside, their interpretations of current happenings are basically the same.
