Есть чувственное восприятие мира. По мере роста чувственных впечатлений происходит качественный скачок в эпистемологическом процессе и человеческом сознании, и свои формы начинают приобретать понятия о мире. Наша способность анализировать ведет нас от чувственных впечатлений к определению общего между предметами и явлениями. И при помощи логики создается знание. Понятия подобны переплетениям знаний. Они проистекают из практики, и их полезность проверяется практическим применением. Без практики не может быть понятий и теорий. Для расширения нашего знания мы должны двигаться от чувственного к интеллектуальному знанию. Знание возрастает не только в качественном скачке от чувственного к интеллектуальному […] The post Главное противоречие: II Мир в соответствии с диалектическим материализмом (https://anti-imperialist.net/2023/07/14/%D0%B3%D0%BB%D0%B0%D0%B2%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%B5-%D0%BF%D1%80%D0%BE%D1%82%D0%B8%D0%B2%D0%BE%D1%80%D0%B5%D1%87%D0%B8%D0%B5-ii-%D0%BC%D0%B8%D1%80-%D0%B2-%D1%81%D0%BE%D0%BE%D1%82%D0%B2%D0%B5%D1%82%D1%81%D1%82/) appeared first on Anti-Imperialist Network (https://anti-imperialist.net/).

What are the Politically Correct Limits for Accepting Foreign Direct Investment? https://anti-imperialist.net/2023/07/05/what-are-the-politically-correct-limits-for-accepting-foreign-direct-investment/ In Le Kahuin N°18 of last April, we discussed Imperialism whose main form of expansion is foreign direct investment (FDI). We confined ourselves to examining the concept from the angle of the capital-exporting country. Here we approach the problem from the point of view of the recipient countries, mainly the underdeveloped ones where investments can materialise as subsidiaries of multinational firms (MNFs). This is the case when the participation of foreign investment is in the majority, otherwise, if it is in the minority, it is in the form of joint ventures. It should be noted that there are also other […] The post What are the Politically Correct Limits for Accepting Foreign Direct Investment?
