The question of relations between dialogue and dialectics provokes discussions in academic communities. The present paper highlights the need to clarify the concepts ‘dialogue’ and ‘dialectics’ and explore their origins in the history of human thought.

Diametrically opposite positions have been stated by different scholars (Reigel, 1979; White, 2011; Matusov, & Hayes, 2000; Sullivan, 2010; Nikulin, 2010; Matusov, 2011 ; Rule, 2015) . This question has been formulated by many of them as a question of relations between Bakhtinian Dialogic and Vygotskian Dialectic. The integration (or combination) between Bakhtin's ideas of dialogism and Vygotsky's Cultural historical psychology has been presented as an attractive perspective in human and social sciences (Wertsch, 1993; Roth, 2013) . Other scholars focus on fundamental differences between Vygotsky's and Bakhtin's research programs and the theoretical incompatibility of their theories (Cheyne, & Tarulli, 1999; Wegerif, 2008; White, 2011; Matusov, 2011) .  \nFrom my perspective, the question of the relationship between Vygotsky's and Bakhtin's theories could be examined as a part of the wider issue of the relationship between dialogue and dialectics in the context of the history of human thought. Under the influence of postmodern theories, an exceedingly hostile stance towards dialectics became dominant in the North Atlantic Academy. “Recourse to dialectics is generally associated with grand, totalising social theory and a ‘foundationalist’ epistemology... ”(Gardiner, 2000, p. 119) . The anti-dialectic stance is very strong in the field of Bakhtin studies in which adialogical approach has been developed. The representatives of the anti-dialectic ‘camp’ focus mainly on  \nDialogic Pedagogy: An International Online Journal | [http://dpj.pitt.edu](http://dpj.pitt.edu)  \n[DOI: 10.5195/dpj](DOI: 10.5195/dpj).2018.189 | Vol. 6 (2018)  \nA1  \nRelating dialogue and dialectics: a philosophical perspective  \nManolis Dafermos  \nthe conceptual incommensurability and incompatibility of dialectics and dialogism. In contrast to this dominant interpretation, several thinkers consider dialogue and dialectical thinking as compatible concepts (Paul, 2012) and several attempts have been made to integrate dialogue and dialectics (for example, the theory of relational dialectic) (Baxter, 2004) .  \nThe present paper is an attempt to examine the complex and ambiguous relationship between dialogue and dialectics focusing mainly on their philosophical underpinnings. Firstly, I concentrate on defining the concepts dialogue and dialectics, their origin and multiple meanings. This requires areconstruction of the genesis of these concepts in the history of human thought.
