Philosophical Research:Molecular Democracy drafts

reverseDragon (R.D.) is in the midst of a long process of compiling a book on how to fix Marxism — or to be most accurate, all the world's plural Marxisms. This book is tentatively titled Molecular Democracy, and it lays out a new meta-philosophical formulation of Marxism which intends to show how any two Marxist or non-Marxist philosophies can coexist and come to shared understandings through comprehending each philosophy as a series of real-world physical processes taking place in the same reality.

After a few experiments with various ways of organizing drafts of the book or putting up idea fragments for feedback, we settled onto the idea of archiving some of the most interesting or recent scraps on this wiki, alongside the wiki's separate but related project to model ideologies through digital linked data elements. Thus, a partial draft of the book is now available here.

A word of warning: these scraps are for the people they are for and aimed at the people they are aimed at. You should not expect any particular standard of quality from them. Some may be missing their proper sources or inspirations. Some may seem quite objectionable at first without their overall context. Some may appear incomprehensible. Some may contain factual or logical errors. The intent is to fix every one of these problems by the time the book is finished, but until then, do not expect any standard of quality from the scraps under this page. This book is by no means a "politically-incorrect" book that aims to upset people, but the way in which it appropriates Nietzschean approaches of questioning any and all philosophy and philosophical propositions may be shocking to those who are not prepared for it. You can rest easy that the purpose of the book is not to take away these propositions forever but instead to reconstruct them more solidly.

MDem scrap index

version 4.1-4.3 scraps

These are the earliest scraps for the book "as-such", with its present concept and goal.

version 4.4 scraps

This version purely contains scraps that have not been properly integrated into v5.1/5.2. These were either directly intended for version 5.2, or were aimless scrawlings from the transitional period leading out of version 4.3. 4.3 and 4.4 share the same scrap numbering index.

version 5.1 scraps

This version contains scraps and partially-finished chapters that have not made it into version 5.2. Versions 5.1 and 5.2 share a new scrap/chapter numbering index.

  • (none)

version 5.2 chapters

This is the current working version of the book.
