Hegel's approach to logic emphasizes the study of truth forms, a concept often overlooked in existing literature. This book evaluates the relevance of Hegel's views on key logical concepts—such as truth, form, validity, and contradiction—within the context of contemporary philosophical logic. It connects Hegel's thought with analytical philosophy, drawing parallels with thinkers like Aristotle and Frege. By focusing on the philosophical foundations of logic, the work serves as a crucial reference for scholars exploring the intersection of Hegelian and modern logical theories.

The papers in this volume present some of the most recent results of the work about contradictions in philosophical logic and metaphysics; examine the history of contradiction in crucial phases of philosophical thought; consider the relevance of contradictions for political and philosophical actuality. From this consideration a common question emerges: the question of the irreducibility, reality and productive force of (some) contradictions.
