Sobre algumas tentativas de superação do dogmatismo: o marxismo tcheco dos anos 1960

Abstract

The process of de-Stalinization, triggered by Stalin’s death and the subsequent reading of Khrushchev’s report to the XX Congress of the CPSU, was accompanied by intense theoretical debates that led to a real flowering of Marxist thought. In Czechoslovakia these debates were particularly relevant and gave rise to a genuine pluralism within the Marxist theory. The work of Jindřich Zelený, Karel Kosik and Robert Kalivoda represented three distinguished dialogues with the philosophical tradition, with Marx’s work and the Marxism, as well as with different existing theoretical and philosophical trends in Czechoslovakia and expressed three different attempts to address the crisis of the official dogmatism.
