Kants Theory of Value by Christoph Horn (English) Hardcover Book

Description: Kants Theory of Value by Christoph Horn, Robinson dos Santos Even if Kant does not speak that much about values, he uses, in some crucial contexts, a traditional value-based language. Especially in the Groundwork and the Critique of Practical Reason, Kant develops crucial points on this conceptual basis. Furt FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description In explicit form, Kant does not speak that much about values or goods. The reason for this is obvious: the concepts of values and goods are part of the eudaimonistic tradition, and he famously criticizes eudaimonism for its flawed material approach to ethics. But he uses, on several occasions, the traditional teleological language of goods and values. Especially in the Groundwork and the Critique of Practical Reason, Kant develops crucial points on this conceptual basis. Furthermore, he implicitly discusses issues of conditional and unconditional values, subjective and objective values, aesthetic or economic values etc. In recent Kant scholarship, there has been a controversy on the question how moral and nonmoral values are related in Kants account of human dignity. This leads to the more fundamental problem if Kant should be seen as a prescriptvist (antirealist) or as subscribing to a more objective rational agency account of goods. This issue and several further questions are addressed in this volume. Author Biography Christoph Horn, Universität Bonn, Bonn; Robinson dos Santos, Federal University of Pelotas, Pelotas, Brazil.
