The Correlation of Sociology, Historical and Dialectical Materialism - USSR .
Abstract
The article by Yu. Kuchinskiy entitled 'Sociological Lawe,' published in Voprosy Filosofii, Nov. 5, 1957, has brought many responses. This is because the article touched not only on the question of the correction of sociology and historical materialism, but inevitably raised the problem of the correction of sociology and dialectical materialism, and, in the final analysis, raised the problem of the subject or substance of Marxist-Leninist philosophy, inasmuch as the article presupposed a definite concept of historical materialism and its place in the circle of philosophical disciplines. In itself, the article by Yu. Kuchinskiy, as a consequence of the unclear portions in it, could not serve as a basis for discussion. it did, however, serve as a stimulus to discussion. In the articles written in response to it, there are certain definite and varied conceptions of the place of the philosophy of Marxism in the system of sciences, and consequently, varied conceptions of what its substance is; these conceptions are not always precisely stated, but nevertheless serve as the necessary premises in the authors deliberations.
