Each 7 see the other as a rival, a limit to his own power over everything else. This situation is therefore unstable. A struggle ensues, in which one 8 conquer and enslave the other. Hegel 9 describe this as a situation in which Mind is alienated from itself- that is, people 10 takes other people as something foreign, hostile, and external to themselves, whereas they are in fact all part of the same great whole (from MARX A Very Short Introduction)
