        Vernunft und Revolution

        Hegel und die Entstehung der Gesellschaftstheorie

        by Herbert Marcuse, Alfred Schmidt

        Herbert Marcuses Vernunft und Revolution bietet eine durch ihre Klarheit und Werkkenntnis immer noch bestechende Einführung in das philosophische System Hegels und spürt zugleich dessen bahnbrechendem Einfluss auf die Entwicklung der Gesellschaftstheorie nach. Marcuse rekonstruiert das maßgeblich durch Hegel geprägte sozialphilosophische und sozialwissenschaftliche Denken des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts und widerlegt dabei die immer wieder geäußerte These, Hegel sei ein Theoretiker der Restauration und ein Ideologe des Obrigkeitsstaats totalitärer Prägung gewesen. Für Marcuse ist er vielmehr ein Denker der Vernunft, des Fortschritts und der Freiheit. Ein Klassiker der Hegel-Literatur!
