Hegelian dialectic is systematically non-transcendental because it admits no outside

Evidence

Already in the Philosophy of Nature time has been driven out of the natural world, revealing that the concept of time goes beyond its initial definition. This excess of meaning is not, however, presented for its own sake within the System. No moment of the speculative exposition can occupy the overarching position: there is no speculative ā€˜arche-moment’. No transcendental status can be attributed to the movement of ā€˜seeing (what is) coming)’. Any transcendental instance necessarily finds itself in a position of exteriority in relation to that which it organizes. By its nature, the condition of possibility is other than that it makes possible. Yet the Hegelian conception of a system implies precisely the opposite: the absence of any ā€˜outside’ of the System. Dialectical philosophy is systematically non-transcendental. There is no place, in Hegel, for a specific analysis of the concept of time, one that would demonstrate its plastic character. — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel, 274

Categorization

  • XREF: Directly grounds the reader’s brain-work interest: the refusal of an ā€˜outside of the System’ parallels how plasticity has no transcendental ground. — connects to: Relations with the Other form a closed circle, never a progressing dialectic. — Jean-Paul Sartre, Being and Nothingness: An Essay on…, 936; Dialectical criticism occupies a non-position between immersion and externality — Theodor W. Adorno, The Culture Industry: Selected Essays…, 53; Dialectic was contradictory in meaning from its very origin between Plato and Aristotle (+1 more)
  • DEEPTHINKING: The inversion — that a condition of possibility must itself stand exterior to what it conditions, so a self-contained System cannot have one — is a genuinely dense conceptual move worth sitting with.
  • DEFINE: Explains what ā€˜systematically non-transcendental’ means via the exteriority-of-condition argument.
