Question: Hegel's discussion of "desire" in the Philosophy of Mind suggests that it constitutes the guise of self-consciousness, in which the sublation of the contradiction between self-consciousness and its abstract Other (abstract consciousness) allows for true universality. Hegel also claims that this sublative process leads to "bad infinity" when the satisfaction of desire destroys both the object and the subjective desire itself, leaving a void in which another desire arises. What is an objection that could be raised to this component of Hegel's philosophical system? Specifically, is there an objection that can be made about Hegel's distinction between natural and phenomenological desire, or about the claim that the satisfaction of desire is not adequately universal and leads to more desire?
