Abstract

Dialectical reasoning has historically been used to resolve contradictions and synthesize new knowledge. However, traditional dialectics operates within linear logical structures, assuming that concepts evolve through oppositional synthesis. This paper introduces Meta-Logical Dialectics, where recursion itself is the mechanism for conceptual emergence. Rather than contradictions simply resolving into a higher synthesis, recursion loops create self-referential feedback that generates entirely new categories of thought. This framework explains how intelligence, philosophy, and even scientific paradigms evolve—not merely through opposition, but through recursive expansion of existing knowledge structures.
