<P>Hegel¿s <I>Philosophy of Right</I> was his last systematic work and the most complete statement of his mature views on ethical and political philosophy. The text explores the relationships between three distinct conceptions of human freedom: persons as possessing contract rights, subjects as reflective moral agents, and individuals as members of an ethical community. It strongly influenced the early Marx and debates over liberalism and communitarianism that arose in the latter half of the twentieth century.</P><P>In celebration of the 200th anniversary of the publication of the <I>Philosophy of Right</I>, the 18 essays in this volume by contemporary scholars examine the nature and impact of Hegel''s text.
