Abstract

The article provides a comparative study of the Hegelian philosophical system of the spirit and the Jungian collective unconscious psychology. The basic conceptual courses of the Hegelian dialectic are compared with the fundamental concepts of Jungian school, such as the collective unconscious, personality, individuation, selfhood, projection. Despite Jung's pronounced negative attitude towards the Hegelian system, the psychologist's school has numerous parallels with Hegel's philosophy of spirit. The article reveals contradiction between Jung's commitment to the Kantian metaphysics and the abundance of the Hegelian motives in his psychological theory.
