>Evald Vasilyevitch Ilyenkov (1924 - 1979) was an outstanding philosopher,
>whose ideas not only influenced profoundly the Soviet philosophy, but even
>left their mark on the discussions concerning the role of the dialectical
>method, the theoretical foundations of psychology, and the philosophy of
>Marxism in general. The University of Helsinki is going to arrange, twenty
>years after the death of Ilyenkov, an international symposium on his
