[
send me this essay on Kant
]
Immanuel Kant was
born in 1724 in Konigsberg, Germany. He is
undeniably one of the most influential
philosophers in the realm of moral and
political thinking. In The Grounding for the
Metaphysics of Morals, Kant
defines and elucidates the concept he calls
'categorical imperative'. Kant's
philosophy deals with the ethical duties of
the individual moral agent and bases his
system upon principles of universality. This 5
page paper examines the Kantian
concept of categorical imperative a it relates
to the Universal law of freedom and it's
applicability to the testing of maxims.

Kant
and Hume: A comparison of views on Ethics :
[
send me this essay on Kant
]
The study of Ethics is an inquiry into the
foundations of values. It is a concern with
the eventual outcome of the action and
experience of every day life. Ethics is
inherently connected with every science :
economic, political, religious and spiritual,
to name only a few. This 6 page paper argues
that Kant's ideas
were, in effect, superimposed by the theories
presented by Hume. Hume built on the empirical
foundation of Kant
and added the belief that morality is a
consequence of emotion and exceeds the
reasoning abilities in scope and function.
Despite Kant's
opposition to this view of morality, Hume has
presented a wider and more comprehensive
understanding. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Kant
and Autonomy
[
send me this essay on Kant
]
It is difficult to address any study of
ethical behavior without addressing the work
of Immanuel Kant.
He addresses morality through the
interpretation of autonomy. In The Grounding
for the Metaphysics of Morals, Kant
defines the concept he calls 'categorical
imperative'. He sets his thoughts within the
parameters of the rights and duties inherent
in the autonomy of man. This 8 page paper
argues that autonomy is the utilization of the
will inherent in the nature of the animal
while free choice is the utilization of the a
priori 'soul' that the religionists would say
governs the higher thoughts of man in his
relation to God. In this manner, Kant
is in agreement with Stanley Jaki's
representation of scientific history and
philosophical rationality in the book, Angels,
Apes, and Men. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

The
Case of Stella Liebeck and Tort Reform as
Supported by the Works of Kant
[
send me this essay on Kant
]
A 5 page paper that seeks to prove that
Immanuel Kant
would support both Stella Liebeck's case and
Congress' subsequent tort reform laws, simply
because they meet his altruism ideals for
citizens and government under his laws of
citizen duty to act under the laws and slow
government reform. This paper claims that Kant
would not support McDonald's egoism in
retaining their hot coffee policy because of
the number of complaints received prior to
Liebeck's case--and also his 'mine and thine'
policy on dual responsibility. Kant
was a supporter of free-will as long as the
individual agreed to avoid chaos by lending
itself to government's laws, and a supporter
of government as long as it made slow reforms
that did not incite revolutionaries.

Immanuel
Kant’s Vision
of Morality and “Political Moralists”
[

]
This 5 page report discusses the philosopher
Immanuel Kant
(1724-1804) and his understanding of what
constitutes morality and how it cannot be
applied to a concept that would be called
“political moralist.” In Kant’s
opinion, the moral point of view is impartial
and favors no particular individual. Morality
requires an individual, according to Kant,
that he or she act on a maxim that they can
universalize, in other words that his or her
reasons for a certain action could be
considered valid for anyone in a comparable
situation. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

A 5 page paper that investigates significant
aspects of intention or consequences on the
moral and ethical decisions of individuals.
This paper supports Kant's
theory that though man may incorporate
personal and sometimes selfish considerations
into the process of ethical determinations,
this does not negate the moral applications of
these choices. At the same time, Kant's
theories call in to question whether the
effects of moral choices, whether good or not,
are considered good simply becasue of the
intention of the individual making the
determination. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

The
Practical Application of the Theories of Kant
and Mill
[
send me this essay on Kant
]
Immanuel Kant and
John Stuart Mill are philosophers who
addressed the issues of morality in terms of
how moral traditions are formed. Kant's
theory of categorical imperative states that
humanity is of ultimate value and should be
regarded as an end in itself. Mill's
'principle of utility' or 'the greatest
happiness principle' sought for the systematic
coherency of ethical philosophy through the
consequences of actions as the consideration
determining their morality, presupposed by the
acquisition of happiness as opposed to the
avoidance of pain. This 6 page paper examines
the practical application of the two theories.

Immanuel

Knowledge and Time
[

]
This 5 page report discusses Immanuel Kant’s
meaning regarding the “two pure forms of
sensible intuition” being “a priori
knowledge” and “time” as discussed in
his Critique of Pure Reason published in 1781.
Kant (1724-1804)
believed individual thought to be the
framework by which the individual was able to
determine the appropriate category into which
one thought process or pattern would fit over
another. One of his first statements in the
Critique is that: “In the order of time,
therefore, we have no knowledge antecedent to
experience, and with experience all our
knowledge begins.” This paper looks at what
he means by such a ststaement and how it
relates to the nature and relaity of space and
time. Bibliography lists one source.

[

]
A 6 page paper discussing Kant's
imperatives to government and the governed
people as they relate to the firing of the Air
Traffic Controllers by Ronald Reagan. The
paper postulates that Reagan's decision was
short-sighted, because his actions have
potentially lead to that which he sought to
prevent--a socialistic public labor pool. The
paper discusses the affects of his decision in
relationship to both the public and private
sector, and how it may have resulted in the
quiet revolution affecting the private sector.
Although Kant
specifies that altruistic citizens subject
themselves to their sovereign, they must also
police their sovereign, and therefore, the
long-term results of Reagan's decision are in
the hands of the people. Bibliography lists 6

(1724-1804) and David Hume (1711-1776) were
two of the 18th century Western world’s
philosophers who were particularly concerned

Throughout time man has attempted to

that included the primary consideration of
moral or ethical beliefs in the instigation of
laws and, or the ethical meaning of community.
Immanuel Kant has
