Aufhebungâs suppression and preservation each harbor a further double meaning.
Evidence
In the philosophy of Hegel, the dual meaning of Aufhebung as suppression and preservation must itself be understood as having a double meaning, one that mobilizes not only the two meanings of suppression but also the two meanings of preservation. Dialectical sublation proceeds through a movement whereby, at one and the same time, it contracts and alienates the material on which it acts. There are two movements here which our analysis must take the time to distinguish in their speciïŹc features, as the dynamic of the Aufhebung consists in its power to synthesize and to relate these same two movements. â Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel, 1011
