The Hegel dialectical materialism process was based on:

The concept of Hegel’s dialectics and its later development into dialectical materialism includes both ideas and material conditions.

• Hegel’s Dialectics: Focuses on the development of ideas through contradictions and resolutions. This is mainly a thought process.


• Marx and Engels (Dialectical Materialism): They adapted Hegel’s idea and applied it to real-world material conditions like economy, society, and class struggle. This involves material exchange and social relations.

Thus, both mental (thought-based) and material aspects are involved in understanding this concept.
