The system taken within Hegel's philosophy of history is
'dialectical progression'! His model starts with an existing
thesis, with the contradictions incased to its structure. These
contradictions unwittingly create the thesis direct opposite, or
antithesis, bringing about a period of conflict between the two.
The new synthesis that emerges from this conflict then finds its
own internal contradictions, and the process continues. The
Hegelian dialectic is called 'progressive' because each new thesis
represent an advance over the previous thesis, continually until a
final goal is reached. To apply Hegel's view of world history, it
represents the manner in which the Spirit develops gradually into
its present form. Ultimately it recognizes its own essential
freedom. To Hegel, "world history is thus the unfolding of Spirit
in time, as nature is the unfolding of the 'idea' in space." The
dialectic process thus virtually defines the meaning of history for
Hegel.
