What is a contradiction? What is the meaning of unity of opposites?

Contradiction arises from the existence of subjective and objective differences in the connection, and the contradiction is eliminated when the difference between subjective and objective is eliminated.

For example, two villages, in dispute over the boundaries of their villages, both believed that the disputed lot should belong to their own villages, so they started a lawsuit, and as a result, the authorities organized a forensic excavation, and the stone oxen buried in the ground at the original village boundary to mark the boundary were excavated, and the dispute was settled. Therefore, the key is to establish a convincing objective basis, so that the contradictions caused by subjective differences will naturally be resolved.

In the past, most families only had one TV, and there was often a competition for the channel to watch their favorite programs, so there was a conflict, and the family often reached a tacit understanding, watching it in different time periods, and there was a replay without delaying the two to effectively resolve the conflict; With the increase of TV programs, the cultivation of common interests and hobbies, the interests and hobbies have changed, and the abidence of the first come, first served, know how to be humble to each other, negotiate, who likes to watch and who watches, the contradiction will naturally be resolved.

The opposition of contradiction is that there is a difference between subjectivity and subjectivity, and between subjectivity and objectivity, and the unity of contradiction is that subjectivity and objectivity coincide.

Just like watching TV, if you can identify with the programs that others like to watch, then you can eliminate the contradictions. If you can't argue, simply turn off the TV and don't watch it, which is also a way, and the result is that an agreement is reached. Willingness is a good way of unification, if you are willing, you can make the subjective and any objective to reach a unity, no matter how big the contradiction can be resolved.

It has been said that the unity of opposites is a common phenomenon. For example, the glass cup is a unified whole, and it is empty in the middle, the edge and the bottom are solid, the empty and the real itself are opposites to constitute a unified cup, if the cup is filled with glass water, then the real will be empty swallowed up, and things have undergone a qualitative change, not called the cup but called the glass pillar.

When I saw a 100 yuan piece on the ground, there would immediately be two voices in my head, one of which said, "You can't pick it up, others will laugh when they see it." Another said, "You can pick it up, no one will see it." Actually, it's all two sentences that you think in your brain alone.

Answer: Analysis:

The relationship between opposites and unity contained in the thing itself is called contradiction. The so-called antagonism refers to the mutual exclusion and struggle between the two sides of the contradiction. The so-called unity refers to the interdependence of the two sides of the contradiction under certain conditions, the existence of one side is premised on the existence of the other, and the two sides are in a unity.

The contradiction between the two sides, according to certain conditions, each transforms in the opposite direction of itself.

We generally understand the unity of opposites as the identity and struggle of contradictions.

For example, "laziness" and "diligence" are two contradictory aspects.

1.Their unity [identity].

Interdependent and interconnected, the existence of one presupposes the existence of the other, that is to say, if there is no contrast between one (lazy), the other side of the contradiction (diligence) cannot be reflected. If you don't even know "laziness", how can you feel "diligence"?

Mutual transformation. The two opposing sides of the contradiction can be transformed into each other, and only to the opposite. To be transformed into "laziness" is to transform into his opposite, "diligence", not into "success".

2.Their antagonism is [combative].

The two sides of the contradiction are mutually exclusive and antagonistic to each other. Think about it, when you are doing things, do you have two villains in your mind "diligent" villains and "lazy" villains fighting, one side of the contradiction wants to resist the other side, exclude the other, and their state is called "opposite".

The law of unity of opposites.

That is, the law of contradictions, which is the core concept of dialectics. Contradiction is the opposition and unity between things or things and their relations, in short, contradiction is the unity of opposites.

1. The law of the unity of opposites is materialist dialectics.

The essence and core of the system.

1) The law of the unity of opposites reveals the fundamental content of universal connections and the internal dynamics of the development of things.

2) The law of the unity of opposites is the central thread that runs through the other laws and categories of dialectics, and is the key to understanding the other laws and categories.

3) The law of the unity of opposites is the distinction between dialectics and metaphysics.

of the watershed. 4) The method of contradiction analysis is the fundamental method of materialist dialectics.

2. The identity of contradictions.

and the nature of struggle and its interrelationships.

Principle: Identity and struggle are the two basic properties or two basic properties of contradictions.

1) The identity of the contradiction refers to the nature and tendency of the two sides of the contradiction to be interdependent and interconnected. It has two basic meanings:

The most common example is the sentence "someone else is lying." For if what others say is true ("others are lying"), then others are lying; But if what others say is false ("I'm not lying"), then others are not lying. So whether the sentence is true or not, the situation cannot be true.

Contradiction is the unity of opposites.

Contradiction reflects a special state of interaction and mutual influence between things, and "contradiction" is not a thing, nor an entity, but essentially belongs to the attribute relationship of things.

This kind of attribute relationship is a special relationship between things, and this special relationship is "opposite", and it is precisely because of this "opposite" relationship between things that it can constitute a contradiction.

Therefore, contradictions are to a certain extent what drives things.

The two sides of any contradiction are opposites and unity! That is, the two aspects are not only different, antagonistic, and combative, but also exist in each other's conditions, are interdependent, and are unified in the sports system.

So when we look at things and think about problems, we must see both their opposites and their unity! We must not be rigid, limited, and look at the problem in a single way. In dealing with practical contradictions, it is necessary to be good at grasping the nature of struggle, tending to unity in the course of struggle, and grasping the struggle in the course of unity.

Just like the unity of a collective, it is by no means obtained in the unprincipled compromise of each other, in a group of harmony, in a pool of stagnant water. Unity without struggle is not true unity. The premise of collective unity is correct and rational struggle.

We should see that the nature of contradiction and struggle is inevitable and absolute, just as material movement is absolute. There are differences in the status and role of the two sides of the contradiction, and they struggle with each other and transform each other. Therefore, when we look at practical problems, we must first admit their antagonism and the inevitability of struggle, and we must not idealize or take it for granted, but actively understand the law of struggle, adjust the form of struggle, and make it develop in a correct and rational direction.

On the other hand, the two sides of contradiction are interrelated, interpenetrating, transforming and interdependent, and this is the unity of contradiction.

1. Identity, which is relative and conditional. When we look at practical problems, we can't be dead, solidified, and unchanging. Rather, it should be flexible, flexible, aggressive, vivid, temporary, and relative.

When we think about the problem from the right starting point, we will go in the right direction, and we will be able to find a reasonable way.

The antagonistic nature of the struggle against contradictions is only one form of struggle, not the whole form of struggle. Only when the contradictory movement of things develops to a certain stage will confrontation arise. The confrontation stage is a key link in the process of transforming the two sides of the contradiction, and is a prerequisite for qualitative change.

It is the result of the intensification of the contradictory movement. Therefore, we should realize that contradictions and confrontations are completely different, and sometimes confrontation is eliminated, but contradictions still exist. You can't just apply this formula.
