In dialectical reasoning, contradiction is not only an error to be removed. It is also information about a form&rsquo;s limits and about how that form changes.</p> <p>Put simply: a dialectical analysis asks how something&rsquo;s own structure produces tensions it cannot finally contain, and how those tensions force transition into a new structure.</p>
