Soviet appropriation of Scheler's phenomenology

Helmut Dahm

pp. 241-259

In early 1967 G.K. Bušurov, a Soviet philosopher who belongs to the Leningrad Institute of Pedagogy, correctly stated in "The Character of the Philosophical-Historical Views of VI. Solovyev" that "Marxist literature [has] not had until recently any special investigation of VI. Solovyev."1 The same thing is even more true in regard to philosophical-historical research on German phenomenology, especially Husserl and Scheler. The historiographical work of the intellectual-historical relations in both cases remains equally fragmentary. The Marxist writing of the history of philosophy exhibits as much as ever considerable gaps in regard to Slavophil thought, on the one hand,2 and German philosophy from Schopenhauer to Scheler, on the other.3 Twentieth century (German) phenomenology first began to enter the field of vision of East European4 and Soviet5 Marxist research in the middle of the Sixties.
