Swerve and Negation

While in British Phenomenalism, the nothingness that separates Sense Data is a passive feature, in Hegelian Phenomenology, Negation is an active, cardinal, principle.  Thus, influenced by Hegel, Marx is predisposed to interpreting Swerve as Negation.  But, doing so falsifies it in two significant ways.  First, Negation abstracts from the infinitude of possible new directions that can eventuate in a Swerve.  Second, even in its Determinate variety, Negation still effects a rupture in what is a continuous motion from the beginning of a Swerve to its completion.  In contrast, Darwinian Variation and Deleuzian Difference more accurately represent the structure of Swerve.
