Abstract

In the same year of 1844, the two major readings of the relationship between political economy and Hegelian philosophy were established for the first time. On one side, Rosenkranz pointed the questions concerning what the Philosophy of Right (1821) designated as civil society. On the other, Marx pointed to the importance of the notion of labor, specially in the Phenomenology of the Spirit (1807). Without definitely align with either of these two traditions, this research proposes itself to analyse this influence both in the more restricted field of civil society and in the theme of labor, searching to articulate this two fields from the abstraction process that imposes itself as the groundwork of labor, unfolds itself in the civil society (multiplication of needs, abstraction of labor, value, colonization) and points to the absolute spirit (state and world history). We shall see that this process of abstraction (which also imposes itself as groundwork of language) is the negative condition for the coming of the spirit, precisely for transforming the world (the being, the exteriority) property of the spirit (AU)
