In this paper I made an attempt to discuss how the concept of alienation has been discussed in G.W.F. Hegel’s (1770–1831) social philosophy. In Hegel’s philosophy, alienation is part of the process of self-creativity and self-discovery. According to Hegel, initially our consciousness is alienated from itself. It cannot understand its own true nature. In order to realize its own true nature consciousness’s needs to develop absolute knowledge. The development of consciousness’s absolute knowledge is possible through the overcoming of self-alienation of consciousness. Here, concept of alienation plays an important role in bringing consciousness to the shape of itself called absolute knowing. According to Hegel, consciousness cannot easily know itself with certainty. Consciousness has to develop its self-understanding to fully understand itself. In his discussion of the concept of alienation Hegel compares the dialectic of self-consciousness and consciousness which is not self-realised with the famous dialectic of the lord and the bondsman. It means while discussing the relation of lord and bondsman Hegel compares lord with independent consciousness and bondsman with dependent consciousness. This dialectic of lord and bondsman is sometimes referred to as the dialectic of the master and the slave relationship. In the productive system when everybody regards themselves to be producer and as a member of productive activity, when everybody participates in the large collaborative activity, then there exists no alienation in the society. But when people forget this identity then alienation arises in the society. Hegel thinks that when our consciousness reaches at the stage of itself called Absolute knowledge then it clearly comes to know that it is a differentiated spiritual unity of subjectivity and objectivity. Then it comes to know its own true nature and it overcomes its self-alienation. In the same way in society people overcome their self-alienation when everyone can think themselves to be a part of the whole community. In the present study, I shall deal with how Hegel has applied the concept of alienation in his social philosophy and how does he try to show that through overcoming his alienation a man gets united with the other or the whole community.

黑格尔的社会哲学中的异化概念

在本文中,我试图讨论如何在GWF黑格尔(1770–1831)的社会哲学中讨论异化的概念。在黑格尔的哲学中,疏离是自我创造和自我发现过程的一部分。根据黑格尔的说法,最初我们的意识已与自身疏远。它无法理解自己的真实本性。为了实现自己的真实本性,意识需要发展绝对知识。通过克服意识的自我异化,有可能发展意识的绝对知识。在这里,异化的概念在将意识转变为绝对知识这一本身的形状中起着重要的作用。根据黑格尔所说,意识不能轻易确定地了解自己。意识必须发展其自我理解才能充分理解自己。黑格尔在异化概念的讨论中比较了自我意识和意识的辩证法,而自我意识和意识的辩证法并没有与著名的领主和奴役者的辩证法进行比较。这意味着黑格尔在讨论领主与邦德曼的关系时,将领主与具有独立意识的邦德曼和具有独立意识的邦德曼进行了比较。主人和奴役者的这种辩证法有时被称为主人和奴隶关系的辩证法。在生产系统中,当每个人都将自己视为生产者并作为生产活动的成员时,当每个人都参加大型协作活动时,社会中就不会存在疏远感。但是,当人们忘记这种身份时,社会中就会产生疏远感。黑格尔认为,当我们的意识到达称为绝对知识的阶段时,就会清楚地知道这是主观性和客观性的不同精神统一。然后,它了解了自己的真实本性,并克服了自身的异化。当每个人都可以认为自己是整个社区的一部分时,人们以同样的方式克服了自我疏离。在本研究中,我将讨论黑格尔如何在他的社会哲学中应用异化的概念,以及他如何试图通过克服他的异化来表明一个人与另一个或整个社区团结在一起。当每个人都可以认为自己是整个社区的一部分时,人们以同样的方式克服了自我疏离。在本研究中,我将讨论黑格尔如何在他的社会哲学中应用异化的概念,以及他如何试图通过克服他的异化来表明一个人与另一个或整个社区团结在一起。当每个人都可以认为自己是整个社区的一部分时,人们以同样的方式克服了自我疏离。在本研究中,我将讨论黑格尔如何在他的社会哲学中应用异化的概念,以及他如何试图通过克服他的异化来表明一个人与另一个或整个社区团结在一起。
