Transition from Property to Contract Determinate being [Dasein], as determinate being, is essentially being for another (see above, Rem. to § 48); property, on the side on which it is a determinate being as an external thing, is for other external things and stands within the connection of this necessity and contingency. But as the…

Since the two contracting parties relate to one another as immediate, self-subsistent persons, contract proceeds: α) from arbitrary will; β) the identical will that comes into determinate being through the contract is only one posited by them, and hence only common, not universal in and for itself; γ) the object of the contract is a…

Transition from Right into Morality Crime and avenging justice exhibit, namely, the shape of the development of the will as having gone forth into the distinction between the universal will in itself and the individual will existing for itself in opposition to it, and further, that the will in itself has returned into itself by…

Transition from Morality into Ethical Life For the good, as the substantial universal of freedom, but still abstract, there are therefore equally required determinations in general and the principle of these determinations, but as identical with it, just as, for conscience, the merely abstract principle of determining, the universality and objectivity of its determinations, is…

Subjectivity, which has its most external appearance as the dissolution of the existing life of the state in that opining and reasoning which seeks to assert its own contingency and thereby destroys itself, has its true actuality in its opposite: subjectivity as identical with the substantial will, which constitutes the concept of the power of…

Into the relation of states to one another — since within it they are particular — there falls the most agitated play of inner particularity: of passions, interests, purposes, of talents and virtues, of violence, wrong, and vice, as well as of external contingency, in the greatest dimensions of appearance — a play in which…

Since, in the hard struggle of these realms — which here stand in a difference that has attained its absolute opposition, and which are at the same time rooted in one unity and Idea — the spiritual degrades the existence of its heaven to an earthly here-and-now and to common worldliness, both in actuality and…
