Foundation Encyclopedia Dialectica [F.E.D.] -- headquartered at "Stars' End, New York", and at "Terminious, California" -- has announced a revolution in mathematics, which they also describe as a cognitive revolution, in the form of a new, dialectical mathematics -- a mathematics of "psycho-historical" dialectics -- including a "purely qualitative" system of "Contra-Boolean Algebra", encoding an algorithmic Dialectical Logic.

This "mathematics of dialectics", they say, arises as the positive fruition of an "immanent critique" of standard, "reductionistic" mathematics, and enables the formulation of a "New Model of the Universe", one that embodies a Marxian "Dialectic of Nature".

Their discoveries are described in a series of web-published excerpts from a forthcoming book entitled "Dialectical Ideography: A Contribution to the Immanent Critique of Arithmetic".

All of the F.E.D.'s web-posted publications carry an "Omni-Copyright" statement, which reads: "Copyright to original portions of this work is hereby granted to all persons."

Therefore, even though we have no official connection with the F.E.D., we need have no fear of copyright infringement in citing and discussing the F.E.D. writings.

Indeed, it is difficult to envision how an official connection could be established, because F.E.D. appears to be an extremely reclusive organization, having no known mailing addresses, as far as we have been able to ascertain.

The purpose of this discussion Group is to explore and assess this new, "Marxian" mathematics.
