Hegel and politics

Hegel's political philosophy emerges from a central understanding of politics as a distinctive type of human action which is inseparable from human freedom. Freedom is reached through the dialectical conversation of politics, based on speech and recognition, and realized through history in the state. Hegel's concept of politics bears the mark of a strong classical influence, which is partly reflected in Hegel's perception of clear boundaries between the moments of family, civil society, and political state.
