 Master and Servant The birth of self-consciousness through recognitionHeidi R. Krauss ()
Zeitschrift für interdisziplinäre ökonomische Forschung, 2016, issue 2, 15-18 Abstract: Hegel's famous Master and Slave dialectic which he develops in his work Phenomenology of Spirit describes in narrative form the development of self consciousness - the result of a struggle between two „beings". The central point is recognition. Not only recognition of your own self-consciousness but also of the other. He presents this idealized in a situation where two beings meet and the development they have to undergo. The following article doesn't make a strict distinction between „inside the mind" and „reality" but uses Hegel's „pattern" adapting it to working life and the relationship between workers and their leaders. This article will help tounderstand the social phenomenon of achieving self-conscious ness - not only necessary for the own wellbeing but an important factor for a good working team and company - and to make the lector reflect about asymmetrical recognition.
