Complete and unabridged, this edition of Georg Wilhelm Friedrich
Hegel's 1821 classic offers a comprehensive view of the
philosopher's influential system. In the "Philosophy of Right, "
Hegel applies his most important concept -- the dialectics -- to
law, rights, morality, the family, economics, and the state. The
last of Hegel's works to be published in his lifetime, this volume
combines moral and political philosophy to form a sociologic view
dominated by the idea of the state. Hegel defines universal right
as the synthesis between the thesis of an individual acting in
accordance with the law and the occasional conflict of an
antithetical desire to follow private convictions. The state, he
declares, must permit individuals to satisfy both demands, thereby
realizing social harmony and prosperity--the perfect synthesis.
Further, Hegel renounces his formerly favorable assessment of the
French Revolution and rejects the republican form of government,
suggesting instead an idealized form of a constitutional monarchy,
in which ultimate power rests with the sovereign.
