Description

The Philosophy of Living Experienceis the single best introduction to the thought of Alexander Bogdanov (1873 1928), a Russian polymath who was co-founder, with Lenin, of the Bolshevik Party. His landmark achievements areEmpiriomonism(1904 6), a philosophy of radical empiricism that he developed to replace what he considered to be the crude materialism of contemporary Marxists, andTektology: Universal Organisational Science(1912 17), a precursor of cybernetics and systems theory.The Philosophy of Living Experience(1913) was written at a transitional point between the two; it is a final summing up of empiriomonism, an illustration of his theory of the social genesis of ideas, and an anticipation of Tektology."
