[Marxist dialectics] In writing literature, how much context should be explained before the topic?

(I know this post is about Marxist dialectics, not historical materialism; but there seems to be no community for Marxist dialectics.)

When it comes to essays, context is generally explained before the actual topic; but under dialectics, nature is interconnected. Context could be relevant to *all* other systems.

Examples:

  • Explaining a legal case would require a piece of literature to first explain legal systems that are qualitatively relevant. However, dialectics asserts that nature is interconnected. In this case: the legal system is connected with history, humans, science, etc.

  • (A dumb example: Anime being somehow related to capitalism or Hitler because all systems would be related to each other.)

Then the writer would need to explain all these other systems and how they relate to each other, including the relevant topic; however, this amount of writing would be difficult due to multiple factors:

  • The human lifespan. (Affected by health.)
  • A lack of time to finish writing.
