Abstract

This paper discusses how Hegel manages to overcome the dichotomy between class (ständisch) privileges and power of the monarch by redefining the concept of “privilege”. In order to demonstrate this, we briefly set forth (I) the context of the discussion about this topic, (II) Hegel’s criticism of the forementioned theories, and (III) his reinterpretation of the concept of “privilege”through the theory of ethical State.
