Description
This introduction to Kant's ethics provides a concise and accessible overview of his moral theory. By exploring the connection between politics and morality, Sullivan explains why Kant believed that a civil society requires a moral foundation. This approach also sheds light on Kant's idea that our basic moral norms should serve as laws for everyone.
The book includes a detailed commentary on Foundations of the Metaphysics of Morals, Kant's most widely studied work in moral philosophy. This commentary provides valuable insights into Kant's thought and is an essential resource for anyone interested in understanding his ethical ideas.
