Hegel and Empire

Más información sobre el libro

Hegel's analysis of Africa, India, and Islam is scrutinized for its implications on postcolonial and global studies. The book delves into his master-slave dialectic and situates his views within a European philosophical framework, while also highlighting the critiques from postcolonial scholars. Each chapter provides a detailed examination of how Hegel's Eurocentric traits reflect modernity, yet paradoxically offers tools for fostering a more inclusive global perspective. This nuanced appraisal reveals the complexities of Hegel's influence in contemporary discourse.
