Line 1:

In a [[dialectic]] process but describing the interaction and resolution between multiple [[paradigms]] or [[ideologies]], one putative solution establishes primacy over the others. The goal of a dialectic process is to merge point and counterpoint (thesis and antithesis) into a compromise or other state of agreement via conflict and tension (synthesis). "Synthesis that evolves from the opposition between thesis and antithesis." (Eisenstein, "The Dramaturgy of Film Form" 23). Examples of dialectic process can be found in ''[[Plato's Republic]]''.

In a [[dialogic]] process, various approaches coexist and are comparatively [[Existentialism|existential]] and relativistic in their interaction. Here, each ideology can hold more salience in particular circumstances. Changes can be made within these ideologies if a strategy does not have the desired effect. An example of the dialogic process can be found in [[Robert Nozick|Nozick's]], ''[[Anarchy, State, and Utopia]]''.
