Critique of Dialectical Reason, (French: Critique de la raison dialectique) (1960), (Volume I: Theory of Practical Ensembles) [1]was the last of Jean-Paul Sartre's major philosophical works: it attempts to use Existentialism as a foundational contribution to Marxism as described in Search for a Method, both of which were written as a common manuscript of some 755 pages with Sartre intending the Critique to logically precede Search[2]. The second volume with an incomplete treatment of the Stalinization of the Bolshevik revolution was published in French in 1985 and in English in 1992. Sartre is quoted as having said this was the principal of his two philosophical works for which he wished to be remembered.[3][4] Volume IIntroductionThe Dogmatic Dialectic and the Critical DialecticCritique of Critical InvestigationBook I - From Individual Praxis to the Practico-InertIndividual Praxis as TotalisationHuman Relations as Mediation between Different Sectors of MaterialityMatter as Totalised Totality: a First Encounter with NecessityCollectivesBook II - From Groups to HistoryThe Fused GroupThe Statutory GroupThe OrganizationThe Constituted DialecticThe Unity of the Group as Other: the MilitantThe InstitutionThe Place of HistoryClass Struggle and Dialectical ReasonVolume IISee alsoNotes
