The Hegelian/Marxist goal is emancipation.  Marx said it best in 1843:

"Human emancipation wll only be complete when the 
real, individual man (sic) is absorbed into 
himself the abstract citizen; when as an 
individual man, in his every day life, in his 
work and in his relationships, he has become a 
species-being (politically accountabe to the 
whole); and when he recognizes and realizes his 
own power as social powers, so that he no  longer 
separates this social power from himself as political power."
