Content’s determinateness self-ranges into place rather than being externally attached

Evidence

The content shows that its determinateness (Bestimmtheit) is not received from something else, nor externally attached to it (aufgeheftet), but that it determines itself, and ranges itself as a moment having its own place in the whole (rangiert sich aus sich zum Momente und zu einer Stelle des Ganzen). — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel, 1086

Category: Definitional Content

• DEFINE: Contrast of aufheften (external pinning-on) with self-ranging shows how content determination is immanent rather than imposed.
