Plasma cosmology[edit]

Someone with knowledge (of what they termed it and how it was proposed) should add to the article the philosophical cosmology of the Soviet Union & communist era Russia. I know they proposed things that mirror very closely what is termed "plasma cosmology" today; that the universe is infinitely old, had no beginning, is infinite in scope and that there was no "big bang" but a dialectical materialism of cosmic matter, like stars, birthing one another. I know the works of Viktor Hambardzumyan had quite a bit to do with it, but many, many others also. I don't know if it was ever codified, but I know it was at least an unspoken official stance. The views on plasma universe sites like electric universe and those from Soviet cosmologists come together almost invariably. I believe it definitely belongs in the article.

Analytic/Logical Empiricist Philosophy in the USSR/PRC[edit]

The wikipedia article states "During the 1960s and 1970s Western philosophies including analytical philosophy and logical empiricism began to make a mark in Soviet thought."

And various Western Marxists and Trotskyists have accused Soviet dialectics of being in reality western Analytical and positivist philosophy, and not truly remaining true to Marx or Hegel.

To what extent was Soviet philosophy influenced by logic in the West, and was any attempt made to reformulate dialectical philosophy in a more complex logical framework as opposed to Engel's 3 laws.

I believe in contemporary China, mainstream academic philosophy is more in the Anglo-Saxon analytic tradition than Hegelian or phenomonological. And offical philosophy is orthodox DiaMat with traditional Chinese influence. So if anyone has information about philosophy in modern China, I'd be interested. --Gary123 (talk) 21:19, 16 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I also came to this article to read about analytic philosophy in the Soviet Union. While I'm here I'm going to remove the section on Russian Formalism since this has nothing to do with philosophy. Misodoctakleidist (talk) 15:35, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Soviet Marxism[edit]

I redirected Soviet Marxism here; at some point it may need to be developed into a dedicated sub article. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 17:57, 13 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
