Kantian Ethics

Más información sobre el libro

Focusing on Kant's ethical theory, Allen Wood presents a distinctive interpretation that emphasizes the original aims of ethics, diverging from the traditional constructivist view. He critically examines key aspects such as the foundation and function of ethical principles, ethical reasoning, and the concept of autonomy. Wood addresses complex topics including free will, the state's responsibility for economic justice, sexual morality, punishment justification, and the prohibition of lying, offering modifications to Kant's conclusions where necessary.
