Hegel and How the History of Consciousness Drives Historical Progress Part 2

In this second episode of a two part installment, I look at George Friedrich Wilhelm Hegel and explore how the history of consciousness mirrors history in general tracing the development of how consciousness might evolve. According to Hegel, we can measure real historical process and I look at how the changing of the collection of citizens' consciousness pushes this historical development along. I rely heavily on Peter Singer's book on Hegel. Hegel is difficult but Singer makes him easier particularly for those in the analytic tradition.
