Einsatz ohne Ziel? Die Politikbedürftigkeit des Militärischen

by Klaus Naumann

We are now faced with a political future that initiated itself with the sudden collapse of Soviet Communism and the unexpected declaration of a "New World Order." In this rapidly changing sea of political realities, there is no better guide to where we have been and to what we might expect than Marcuse. As he well understood, turbulent and spectacular political events always ran within channels earlier set by political theory; he equally understood that it was Hegel's often unappreciated and often misunderstood theory that actually set the fundamental path toward modern political life. It is a fortunate combination to have a scholar of Marcuse's unquestioned brilliance and lucid honesty addressing the sources and consequences of Hegel's social theory.

Great book of you are interested in Hegel and the dialectical process as it relates to the development of social theory and fascism. If you are not familiar with some of that I'd start with his book "One Dimensional Man."
