"First Bergman and then Popper find it appropriate to contrast Hegel, the presumed worshiper of faits accomplis, to Schopenhauer. Yet, if they had read Hitler's “Table Talk,” they would have been disappointed to notice that the Führer of the Third Reich himself fully agreed with the opposition they proposed. Hitler, in fact, credited Schopenhauer with 'pulverizing Hegel's pragmatism.'" (278)

Losurdo locates the dialectic of actuality and rationality as one of the most important parts of Hegel's theory which made it into "Marx's program," and utilizes it to great effect at the end of Chapter 11 in explaining the errors of the Frankfurt School and their general pessimistic attitudes post-1932 as an inability to apply it.

Absolutely excellent so far, far surpasses any secondary study I've read of Hegel to this point—wonderful analysis of Hegel and Rousseau and of course Losurdo's critique of proto-liberalism.
