History at the Limit of World-History by Ranajit Guha

Guha takes on Hegel's vision of world history and fails miserably. While Hegel's world history has many problems inherent in the philosophy, Guha doesn't adress these. Rather, he tries to take Hegel on head-to-head and comes up lacking because he misinterprets Hegel's writings.
