Abstract: This paper contains a reflection on the Hegelian Dialectic Synthesis, shortened by the triplet Thesis–Antithesis–Synthesis, from a formal and naive points of view inscribed in the field of ordinary or commonsense reasoning. The Dialectic Synthesis is analyzed thanks to the methodology of Fuzzy Logic, and limiting the antithesis to either negation or opposite. It is shown, through very simple examples, the necessity for arriving at a synthesis, of a common ground (either crisp or possibilistic) between the thesis and its antithesis.
