The dialectical reversal is a central concept in philosophy GWF Hegel. He refers to the process of overcoming a contradiction, be the positive, valuable items and receive continued and the negative omitted.

Hegel saw in the German word repeal the speculative spirit of the language which is capable of reconciling divergent meanings in one word. He presented the three moments of the dialectical suspension as follows:

For Karl Marx thought the concept of dialectical suspension of his early writings, in which he proclaimed the abolition of philosophy by their achievement and the realization of philosophy by their removal, to the later writings is central; the capital is inspired in its structure of Hegel's logic, if not its abolition, because realization (see above). An explicit work on the dialectic does not exist. Repeal means here no longer as in Hegel "internal self-movement " of " content", but emphasizes the aspect of human activity as shaping the world as it was formulated by Marx first expressed in his Theses on Feuerbach.

The differences between materialist and Hegelian dialectic tried, among other things Louis Althusser work out. Various essays devoted to this theme, go from one of the few places from where Marx explicitly talks about his method: " The mystification which suffers the dialectic in Hegel's hands, preventing in any way that he first in its general form of comprehensive and conscious manner has shown. she stands with him on the head. it must be turned them to discover the rational kernel within the mystical shell. " Althusser argues that Marx's formulation of the " back on its feet " make led to misunderstandings, as the Marxian dialectic is far more than a simple inverted Hegelian dialectic.
