This book explores and details the actuality (Aktualit t) of
Hegel 's social and political philosophy--its relevance,
topicality, presence, and contemporary validity. It
asserts--against the assumptions of those in a wide range of
traditions--that Hegel 's thought not only remains relevant to
debates in current social and political theory, but is capable of
productively enhancing and enriching those debates. The book is
divided into three main sections. Part I considers the actuality of
Hegel 's social and political thought in the context of a
constructed dialogues with later social and political theorists,
including Marx, Adorno, Habermas, and Rawls. Part II explores Hegel
s internal criticism of Enlightenment rationality as well as the
unique manner in which his thought reaffirms both the classical
tradition of politics and the Christian conception of freedom in
order to deepen and further develop our understanding of modernity
and modern secularity. And, Part III considers Hegel 's
contribution to current theorizing about globalization.
