Constructing Authorities

Más información sobre el libro

Focusing on Kant's philosophy, this collection of essays by Onora O'Neill critiques the notion that his critique of reason is merely dogmatic. O'Neill argues for a constructivist approach to reasoning, emphasizing the importance of constructing the authority of reason through shared dialogue, even with dissenters. She connects this view to Kant's insights on knowledge, ethics, politics, autonomy, the social contract, cosmopolitan justice, and scriptural interpretation. This work serves as a vital resource for scholars exploring Kant's philosophical strategies and their broader implications.
