Hegels praktische Philosophie

This commentary reconstructs the structure and the significance of Hegel‹s philosophy of mind and the objective spirit to the extent that this is included in the three versions of the ‹Enzyklopädie der philosophischen Wissenschaften‹ (Encyclopedia of the Philosphical Sciences). Powerful text analyses show how Hegel‹s practical philosophy changed between 1817 and 1830. Some of the excursus in the book establish their ethical and political content. This book is an important contribution to the discussion on the significance and the logic of Hegel‹s philosophy of freedom and right.
