the notion of dialectics is a notion or rather a category that has a long tradition within scientific thought and the thought of the social sciences, although that tradition can go back to antiquity with the thought of this technical, that first thought, that first line that has to do with dialectics is going to be much more associated with a certain discursive notion, a certain articulation from the discursive and through that is that today when we talk about dialectics many times what is being done is to use it as a synonym for a good oratory capacity, the sense with which we will work and the sense that it assumes within critical thinking in the social sciences does not have so much to do with that but with understanding it as a concrete and specific method for the analysis of human and social phenomena and from that capacity for analysis also use it for the phases of production and from that we are going to associate it with the field of media content production particularly in the case of this seminar with audiovisual production, that is why the notion of dialectics which we are going to resort to, we are going to anchor it from the thought of a German philosopher called Hegel and that is worth several of you and several of you must have heard it because we are there because when we begin to structure the modern notion of dialectic which is what we are going to refer to in the same virtual campus you are going to find contributions to Hegel's thought sea and sweets which are three of the philosophers' trades with which we are going to work so we are not going to stop too much now simply to give some general reference of what is going to be understood or dialectical and why it seems important to us to know how it works and apply it to the phases of audiovisual production dialectics as we said is a method for the analysis and application of social and human phenomena and what is going to characterize dialectics is thinking in totality holistic thinking which is going to propose that things the totality is much more than the sum of the parts that make up that totality a notion of totality is more complex and broader than seeing how the parts function within that totality what does this mean we must not lose sight of that human phenomena and social are complex phenomena marked by diversity and even though we can make a particular cut that interests us to think about this or that issue or in terms of constructing the story of a story, cut to tell this or that issue, that totality is always present and can have many others, for example, this will contribute to us in the field of media content production, audiovisual production, is to take into account that I can opt for a cut, a story, a point of view on something that is not definitive, absolute and unique, but that also allows me to tell the same situation from another point of view and using other tools, for example, different perspectives, two different journalistic notes on the same phenomenon has to do with this, depending on the way in which we understand this complex phenomenon, we can reach different points of view. Today, with the coronavirus and others, understanding, for example, this phenomenon of virtuality, if it is a positive tool, it is a media tool, it is a tool that threatens the development of knowledge, they are part of that discussion as a whole and the other thing is to also understand that this totality is always in motion, that is why the same phenomenon is never the same, but rather as different aspects are articulated within that totality, modifies the perspective of dialectics and the phenomena themselves are modified, that is why the idea of contradiction is very present and permanent and in the notion
