So where do I start with Hegel? Apparently Clausewitz's On War is better understood if you're familiar with Hegelian philosophy or whatever it's called beforehand.
Bump.

Then read some secondary literature or a primary source if you're still not satisfied

You're already familiar with Hegelian philosophy whether or not you realize it.
Hegel is so influential that were once radical ideas in his day are now just common sense.

Thanks. I'll take a look at that stuff in the morning.

Yeah I recall reading Hegel said that stuff would basically grow out far beyond it's original context? Makes sense anyways, considering how many revolutions he accidentally started.
And I've heard the Haldane Reforms, which allowed the BEF to be deployed to France two weeks after WWI started, described as "hegelian" just because Haldane organized the British military in a rational and modern manner.

Seriously don't do that OP. Hegelian philosophy is a disease of the mind.
