Emancipation After Hegel

Achieving a Contradictory Revolution
Book • 2019
Todd McGowan's "Emancipation After Hegel" offers a unique psychoanalytic and German idealist interpretation of Hegel's philosophy.

McGowan challenges conventional readings of Hegel, emphasizing the philosopher's engagement with contradiction as a fundamental aspect of his thought.

The book delves into Hegel's concept of contradiction, arguing that it's not merely opposition but an inherent aspect of reality itself.
