Hegel’s Sittlichkeit and Management Ethics

Thomas Klikauer

Chapter 5 in Critical Management Ethics, 2010, pp 88-104 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract German philosopher Hegel’s ethics (1770–1832) is almost unthinkable without his predecessor Kant and it is not helpful to understand him in isolation from Kant. For some, Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel’s importance ranks alongside that of Aristotle and Kant. Born in Stuttgart on 27th August 1770, the French Bastille Day became a personal holiday for Hegel who was a private tutor in Frankfurt and a lecturer at Jena University by January 1801. He was not paid a salary. The first salaried position came in the year 1807 when he was made editor of the newspaper Bamberger Zeitung. After that he became rector of a High School (1808–1816). In 1816, he was offered his first full-time academic post in Heidelberg. Hegel died of cholera on 13th November 1831.143
