Broadly speaking, a dialectic is an exchange of propositions (thesis) and counter-propositions (anti-thesis)resulting in a synthesis of the opposing assertions or at least a qualitative transformation of the direction of the dialogue. A recent dialectic was Dialectic of Enlightenment. When using the word "dialectic" philosophers usually refer to either the Socratic dialectical method of cross-examination; or to Hegel's dialectical model of history; or to Marxist dialectic.
