For Hegel, not only must property be defended, but anyone, in order to be called a person, must own personal property. The idea of a person or a social class that does not own property is considered by Hegel to be irrational.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe systematic implications of this viewpoint are considerable. If it is not rational for people to exist without owning property, then personal property becomes a necessary condition for the existence of abstract freedom, which in turn is the basis for more complex forms of freedom and for the possibility of a political community. Hegel’s arguments, placed within their legal and historical contexts, are thereby shown to be profoundly pertinent to current debates on property rights.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eHegel on Property\u003c\/em\u003e is essential reading for all scholars of G.W.F.
