Crystals and compounds Book

In this work Plant investigates into Hegel's political philosophy through which Hegel tries
to reinvigorate the ancient city state's unity of public and private domains. Since in the city-states
individuals could take part in public space all the free citizens were political and free.
In modern state Hegel tried to reconcile personal space with public space. He leaves no room for
individuals except for in state. Therefore, for Hegel when personal act concides with state's act, then individual actualize his self and becomes free. So, he acts rationally. For Hegel, "what is rational is actual, what is actual is rational", the actual was modern state so he who obeys the rules
put by the state acts rationally.
Modern free individual is rational and manifestation of the self which is in search of self-recognition.
