Immanuel Kant is rarely appreciated for his contributions to public philosophy. This is unsurprising, given his dry, technical style, criticism of the popular German philosophy movement, and prolonged silence on religious topics following censorship threats from Frederick William II. Yet Kant’s underappreciation vis-à-vis public philosophy is curious: Not only was he a vocal supporter of the early French Revolution, but he also said much on the public and political value of enlightenment. These ideas come across indirectly in his systematic writings and explicitly in writings for the learned public. This paper focuses on the question as to whether Kant should be viewed as a public philosopher, drawing from recent contributions in Kant scholarship to argue for the affirmative, though in an admittedly qualified sense.

Nach einer kurzen Rekapitulation der wichtigsten Aspekte der kantischen Konzeption der Aufklärung und einem Seitenblick auf die Aufklärungskritik Horkheimers und Adornos geht dieser Beitrag der Frage nach, ob Kants Aufklärungskonzeption im Zeitalter von Fake News, Facebook und Filterblasen noch aktuell ist. Ausgangspunkt ist die Frage, was den Impfskeptiker Kant von heutigen radikalen Impfgegnern unterscheidet. Mit Blick auf Kants Aufklärungskonzept wirft das zwei Fragen auf: erstens, was für die Fähigkeit zum Selbstdenken mehr erforderlich ist als der Mut, sich seines Verstandes selbständig zu bedienen; und zweitens, was für den gesellschaftlichen Prozess der Aufklärung mehr erforderlich ist als Meinungs- und Pressefreiheit. Beide Fragen haben eine Kant-kritische Spitze, denn sie richten sich gegen zwei explizite Behauptungen Kants, nämlich dass Unmündigkeit auf einem Mangel des Mutes beruht und dass Aufklärung nicht mehr erfordert als Meinungs- und Pressefreiheit. Doch wie sich zeigen wird, stellt Kant selbst diese Verkürzungen im weiteren Verlauf seiner Überlegungen richtig. Tatsächlich gibt er auf unsere beiden Fragen jeweils dieselbe Antwort, nämlich dass Selbstdenken darin besteht, vernünftigen, allgemein nachvollziehbaren Gründen zu folgen.

El presente trabajo se propone estudiar el método utilizado por Kelsen en su Teoría pura del Derecho. El objetivo es tomarlo como un elemento central para esclarecer la filiación filosófica de Kelsen, particularmente, su relación con Kant, el neokantismo y la tradición moderna y a través de esto comprender aspectos fundamentales de su programa filosófico. Además, sostengo que el método utilizado por Kelsen explica tensiones de su sistema. La utilización de los métodos trascendental y sintético (o análisis conceptual) son incompatibles con el estudio dinámico del Derecho y supone, por tanto, una tensión insalvable entre estática y dinámica y validez y eficacia. Así, sostendré que la tensión mencionada es responsabilidad de un método que sólo puede utilizarse en la esfera estática y cuyos resultados se ven contradichos por las conclusiones obtenidas en la esfera dinámica.

In this article I explore the formalist facet of Kant's theory of music and how this facet can be reconciled with sensory gratification and emotional expression. I argue that 1) Kant does not give us an adequate notion of musical form, 2) the status that Kant gives to sensations in music is not plausible, and 3) the presence of an emotionally expressive component introduces inconsistencies within Kant’s text. Remarks about the status that Kant assigns to sensations in music are illustrated by analyzing a work by Mussorgsky later orchestrated by Ravel. Kant's formalist facet is problematized through a comparison with Eduard Hanslick's musical formalism. I conclude by examining Samantha Matherne's (2014) proposal to reconcile the aforementioned dimensions. I argue that Matherne's "expressive formalism" does not resolve all the inconsistencies and implausibilities it tries to resolve
