Hegel's philosophy of history--which most critics view as a theory of inevitable progress toward modern European civilization--is widely regarded as a failure today. Terry Pinkard's spirited defense of the Hegelian view, based on a subtle understanding of human subjectivity, will play a central role in contemporary reevaluations of Hegel's work.
