Kant and the Foundations of Morality

Viac o knihe

Kant's philosophical ethics are examined through the lens of structural-methodological analysis, focusing on the interplay between reason and the forces of nature. Drawing from Kant's "Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals" and other significant texts, the author emphasizes the essential freedom inherent in moral law as a manifestation of the self-activity of the will. The study argues that the categorical imperative serves as a means for finite rational beings to engage with this moral law, framing ethics as a reflection of the will's autonomy.
