Dialectics is a very useful tool for understanding and analyzing change in society - though I don't consider it the best, or at least not the only tool, for solutions. I recently wrote a paper explaining the origins and historical development of institutionalized racism in America, using dialectical materialism. I found it useful for outlining the development and characteristics of each era of racism, and the material circumstances within each era that legitimized it as a systemic condition and process.
