Kantian Ethics

Více o knize

Focusing on Kant's ethical theory, Allen Wood develops a fresh interpretation that emphasizes the rights and moral duties of individuals. He critiques the traditional 'constructivist' view, offering insights into ethical principles, reasoning, and autonomy. Wood addresses key issues like free will, the state's role in economic justice, sexual morality, punishment justification, and the prohibition on lying. His analysis not only clarifies Kant's aims but also modifies aspects that conflict with his foundational principles, providing a robust framework for understanding Kantian ethics.
