Document Summary
Objectification: human ability to see ones self as an object, seeing how other might have seen you is seeing your self as an object. Early societies: unreflective universality no division of labour, all members participate in all aspects of community irectly, but they do not reason about it. Division of labour in capitalism has lead to a particularity )a fragment and selfish self-consciousness) and unhappiness. People do not understand their place in society or the general social goals. ; they are awaye slaves don"t respect for all these reasons but show them obidience only because they have to. Therefore masters do not value the obedience of their slaves, its not satisfying, so that is why according to hegel. Slavery makes not only slaves but masters unhappy. A reasonable and just society must overcome particularity, because humans have an innate need for immediacy. He thinks ideally develop societies can only be developed together.
