The Young Hegelians (Junghegelianer) or Left Hegelians (Linkshegelianer) were Hegelians, distinguished from the Old Hegelians due to their radical outlook on the world. The Right Hegelians believed that the dialectic of history had come to an end, but the young Hegelians thought that the dialectic was not complete.
While the group centers around the philosopher Hegel, the young Hegelians were mostly concerned with theology.
Influential young Hegelians include: Karl Marx, Ludwig Feuerbach, Bruno Bauer, Max Stirner, David Strauss, and Arnold Ruge.
