Description
Hardcover: 344 pages. Richard Bourke returns to G.W.F. Hegel's original arguments in this new account of his ideas for today's world. Countering the postwar anti-Hegel "insurgency", Bourke clarifies the true import of Hegel's thought and its relevance to contemporary society. Hegel believed that modernity was a deliverance from subjection, but also unleashed the spirit of critical reflection. This predicament is explored in terms of a series of world revolutions that Hegel saw as ushering in the rise of civil society and the emergence of the constitutional state.
