[115] Radin states that "even though Hegel does not use the word person for the entity described as the person in the theory of personal property, Hegel's theory can be seen as consistent with the idea of personal property." Radin, Reinterpreting Property, supra note 2, at 45. This statement is inconsistent with both T.M. Knox's well-known English translation and H.B. Nisbet's more recent translation, which use the words "person" and "personality" to describe the abstract will as soon as it begins to interact with property. See G.W.F. Hegel, Hegel's Philosophy of Right 40 (T.M. Knox trans., 1952) and Hegel, The Philosophy of Right (Nisbet trans.), supra note 76, at 489.
Of course, Radin also criticizes Hegel's property theory because the Hegelian "person" is not fully developed. But Hegel presented the "person" as merely a logical step in the development of the "individual."
