Von Deutschland lernen – Goethe und Hegel

Hegel's approach is not only Eurocentric, but nationalistic to the point of racism, in that he excludes Arabs and Africans, Asians and Americans from his philosophy and does not grant them any cultural development ... Conversely, Alexander von Humboldt, inspired by Goethe, not only explored tropical nature, but also condemned the slave trade and colonialism and criticized Hegel's thinking as the worldview of those who have never looked at the world. This book by the Moroccan writer Fawzi Boubia gets to the bottom of these connections and is therefore of burning topicality in the current global situation. ­­– Hans Christoph Buch (from the foreword)
