Hegel’s World Revolutions

In this wide-ranging interview, Richard Bourke (King’s College Cambridge) discusses not only Hegel’s anatomy of the modern world, but how Hegel’s reputation changed over the twentieth century. In doing so, we discuss the significance of not only Hegel’s thought to contemporary society, but also the study of the history of political thought in general.

Richard Bourke is professor of the history of political thought and a fellow of King’s College at the University of Cambridge.
