Additional information

Except for a few alterations this article is a translation of the last chapter of a more extensive study which will be published under the titleInformation und Widerspiegelung. Zu Problemen der Kybernetik und des Diamats with Verlag A. Pustet, München and Salzburg. A detailed presentation and critical discussion of Dialectical Materialist publications, of which only a few are mentioned here, is to be found in this book. The reader unfamiliar with the present subject matter might find some helpful orientation in an article by H. Dahm, ‘Kybernetik als Problem kommunistischer Philosophie’,Wissenschaft in kommunistischen Ländern (Hrsg. v. D. Geyer), Tübingen 1967, S. 49–81.
