: Notes the early developments in induction and definition by Global Context

A distinct feature of Petrović’s philosophy, reflected in his logical theory, is his humanist orientation. He rejects the notion that logic is a sterile, value-neutral technicality. Instead, he links the development of logical thought to the practical emancipation of humanity. He argues that "bourgeois thought" is often alienated thought; it compartmentalizes reality because it is blinded by ideological constraints. Gajo Petrovic Logika.pdf

In Logika , he argued that the death of dialectics leads to the death of democracy. When a society forgets how to handle contradictions (A is not entirely A; a good policy might have bad consequences), that society falls into dogma. In our current era of algorithmic thinking, binary politics (Left/Right, True/False, 1/0), and cancel culture, Petrović’s call for a logic of fluidity is more urgent than ever. : Notes the early developments in induction and
