In this thesis, my aim is to examine Hegel‟s notion of reconciliation in relation to the concept of freedom. In Outlines of the Philosophy of Right, Hegel claims that modern state has a rational core which makes it possible for individuals to reconcile to the social world. He justifies the political order by deducing it from the concept of human freedom to show why the state is reconcilable for individuals. After characterizing the attitude of reconciliation, I shall explore Hegel‟s strategy for justification of the state. By making an exposition of his analysis of freedom, I shall conclude that the state is reconcilable because it provides the necessary conditions for actualization of freedom.
