A logical framework that synthesizes dialectical logic (the logic of contradictions, change, and synthesis) with paraconsistent logic (which tolerates contradictions without explosion). It accepts that in real-world processes (social change, biological evolution, historical development), contradictions are not errors to be eliminated but driving forces. Unlike Hegelian dialectics (thesis → antithesis → synthesis), paradialectical logic does not demand that contradictions be resolved into a higher unity; it allows them to persist, coexist, or be managed. It draws on Marxist dialectical materialism, but also on paraconsistent logics that formalize how a system can contain true contradictions without becoming trivial. Paradialectical logic is useful for analyzing complex, transitional phenomena where a situation is both X and not-X (e.g., a country in revolution, a person in identity transition). Critics argue it is too permissive, but proponents say it better captures real-world flux than static binary logic.
