International LogicAL-HistorICAL School

The International Logical-Historical School has been created by pupils-followers of the professor of Philosophical Faculty of Moscow State University V.A. Vazulin (30.08.1932-08.01.2012). Victor Alekseevich Vazulin is a thinker which creativity in the certain sense has opened a new stage in the development of science. Theoretical research into the processes of human development along with critical revaluation of social theory and social philosophy brought forth an original trend in the sphere of social theory, dialectical logic and the methodology of science. This trend found its expression in V.A. Vazulin’s conception of the “Logic of History”.

The main scientific achievements that brought V.A. Vazulin to his conception are:

1) Revealing the logic of the theoretical part of Marx’s “Capital” by a systematic category revaluation of politico-economic material alongside a parallel critical analysis of Hegel’s “The Science of Logic”. This enabled him to work out the methodology of advanced research, mature science regarding the organic whole. In the framework of this logic and methodology we see, in pure form, the ascent from the abstract to the concrete in its dialectical unity with the ascent from the sensual-concrete to the abstract, the logical in its dialectical unity with the historical, the reasonable aspect of thinking (germ. Vernunft) in unity with the intellectual (germ. Verstand).    

2) A concrete historical approach to Marxism, which is treated as a scientific system developing through the appearance and resolving of necessary contradictions (of the real object and of the process of cognitive activity); it should be mentioned that the systems are internally united in the differences of their components, each of which is at a certain level of its making and development. The logical and methodological analysis of the history of Marxism made by V.A. Vazulin (from the point of view of the methodology of the political economy of capitalism – the most developed part of it) made it possible, firstly, to reveal the objective laws and contradictions  (including the necessary errors) of the beginning, the emergence, the formation, and the maturity of the development of scientific research, i.e. the movement of cognitive thinking from the external to the internal and vise versa, from the surface to the essence of the object (of the subject matter) and vice versa, and so on; and, secondly, to concentrate all efforts on the most promising diversion for the development of social theory.

The above-mentioned achievements are internally connected to the approach to scientific thinking “as a process of natural history, governed by laws”.

3) The creative development made by V.A. Vazulin of the method of scientific investigation made it possible to reveal the inner systematic interconnection of laws and categories of social history which reflect the structure of developed society; it also made it possible to outline the theoretical periodization of human history (the objective laws of its “ascent” from the very beginning, the emergence, the formation, to the maturity) through a prism of interconnections of natural and social factors.

The scientific discoveries made by V.A. Vazulin and especially the discovery of the “Logic of History”, made it possible to comprehend the regularities of the development of society more substantially and fully than in classical Marxism. At the same time, those discoveries opened the stage of the consecutive dialectical development of Marxism (“sublation” in a new synthesis) by “sublating” historical materialism and the formation approach.

The prognostic strength of this theory and methodology was repeatedly approved in the early seventies. The theoretical approach of the “Logic of History” to the fundamental problems of social development (on “early” socialist revolutions, the extensive and intensive development of production forces, formal and real socialization etc.) provides a key to the comprehension of an objective reason for a number of social phenomena, opening the whole scale of research approaches. Such phenomena include, for example, the problem regarding the reasons for the victory of the capitalist counterrevolution and restoration as opposed to the dominant reduction of these reasons to a subjective factor, the problem of perspectives for mankind etc.

Modern life shows the need to reveal in greater depth the cognitive and heuristic potential of this concept.
