Annalisa, "where does history start"? Effectively there is
no starting point, and the choosing of a starting point is
always an ideological move. Foucault does this to great
effect. Ilyenkov deals with this in his book "The Abstract
and Concrete in Marx's Capital" and explains the need for
what he calls the "logical-historical method." To short
circuit the complexities of reading Ilyenkov, in CHAT we
rely on the identification of the unit of analysis or "germ
cell" to anchor our historical investigation.
"Sociogenesis" is just Latin for "social development," the
word I used. But if you are going to ascribe a moral value
to "evolution" and then reject the concept on that basis,
you'd better also reject "development" and all the "geneses"
and evolution of species by natural selection and all modern
biology while you are at it. Alternatively, you could choose
*not* to ascribe moral values to scientific concepts, then
the whole of science is open to you.
