An interdisciplanary collection of essays focused on Kant’s work on the concept of community.
The concept of community plays a central role in Kant’s theoretical philosophy, his practical philosophy, his aesthetics, and his religious thought. Kant uses community in many philosophical contexts: the category of community introduced in his table of categories in the
Critique of Pure Reason; the community of substances in the third analogy; the realm of ends as an ethical community; the state and the public sphere as political communities; the
sensus communis of the
Critique of Judgment; and the idea of the church as a religious community in
Religion within the Boundaries of Mere Reason. Given Kant’s status as a systematic philosopher, volume editors Payne and Thorpe maintain that any examination of the concept of community in one area of his work can be understood only in relation to the others. In this volume, then, scholars from different disciplines — specializing in various aspects of and approaches to Kant’s work — offer their interpretations of Kant on the concept of community. The various essays further illustrate the central relevance and importance of Kant’s conception of community to contemporary debates in various fields.
