Dates: 29 July – 5 August 2018

Call for applications:

The Academia Kantiana of the Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University invites applications for participation in the Second Immanuel Kant International Summer School.

Kant’s Doctrine of Right retains contemporary relevance, taking an important place in recent philosophical discussions. The main exegetical problems with Kant’s Doctrine of Right concern the relations between theoretical and practical philosophy, moral and ‘legal’ obligation, and the concepts of private and public law. In public law, Kant is unique in that he combines concepts and themes from Hobbes, Locke, and Rousseau.

Scientific Supervisor – Prof. Dr. Heiner F. Klemme (Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg), co-editor of Kant-Studien, member of the Academia Kantiana International Research Council (IKBFU, Kaliningrad).
