For Shklar, Hegel prepares the philosophical and theoretical ground for modern ideologies by focusing on the (not always happy) development of the mind in the context of what he regards as historical progress and historical necessity. She argues that a similar view of history was implicit in other nineteenth-century ideological currents, and that this made the question of obligation insignificant, as individuals were regarded as mere carriers of events.
