Introduction Does the world take a particular form regardless of how we view it? If so, do we possess such knowledge so as to ascertain the form the world has assumed? Most philosophers have attempted to answer this questions but Hegel stands out in affirming a theoretical stand on this concept. He upholds the concept of subjectivism as opposed to skepticism. According to his school of thought, for one to understand the form that has been assumed by the world, certain cognitive structures and characteristics need to be considered. His interpretation of the world focuses on the ‘idealist form’. He approaches the fundamental aspect of knowledge by grasping the reality of existence as it is and not by merely applying the notion of ‘formalism’ as proposed by Kant. He views this notion as being ‘empty’. His criticism towards Kant’s philosophy is therefore evident in this argument. He contends that Kant’s philosophy gives a simple intuition in an attempt to describe the correlation between nature and society. Hegel asserts that his concept of idealism requires a subject to assume an identity of both thought and being in order to acquire an understanding of the world. This reasoning capacity possessed by the subject creates an innate knowledge that is known as ‘absolute idealism’. He also asserts that to achieve reason and knowledge, it is imperative to connect both the theoretical and practical aspects of understanding. It is not in doubt that most philosophers fail to understand Hegel’s philosophy of idealism. This paper will therefore bring to fore the premises upon which Hegel’s philosophy need to be upheld based on his Phenomenology of mind argument. The Objectivity In Upholding Hegel’s Philosophy In his Phenomenology of mind , Hegel brings out the connection between infinite and finite. He further uses this connection to explain his concept of logical science. It is in this school of thought that an understanding defining both nature and spirit is culminated through what Hegel calls human reason. This is what Hegel refers to as the ‘philosophy of right’. Hegel goes ahead to create an interrelationship between the subjects through a mutual recognition. This concept seeks to verify the quest for human reason in a bid to understand their subjective existence within an object. Further, according to his school of thought, he takes a different approach from his predecessors by emphasizing the need to understand the notions of reality and practicability. The philosophy of Hegel brings to fore three basic themes purporting that all subjects exist through ‘reason’ and that all cohorts are as a result of ‘thought’. The first theme is idealism. According to Hegel, the purpose of integrating the philosophical query and knowledge is to generate an idea. His argument creates an implication that various concepts and phenomena need to be explained and that explanation is given in form of science. He therefore equates philosophy to science. In his justification, he elucidates the importance of creating a valuable hierarchy of things that justifies the origin of every object and subject. It is this argument that brings to fore the concept of teleological explanation that develops the idealism approach. The second theme that is imminen
