The thinker Immanuel Kant
Introduction
The German philosopher Immanuel Kant, describes how human history could progress towards its final objective: the lighting of humanity under a unified global order. When describing how humans are divided between the desire to join society and the natural tendency to conflict, Kant argues that this tension can lead humans to achieve their maximum potential as rational beings. Meanwhile, according to Kant, wars would not only lead to governments to recognize the importance of peaceful negotiation. Since they would lead the rulers to increase the freedoms of their citizens, in order to increase economic productivity and strengthen the State.
Developing
Whatever the concept that one can have, from a metaphysical point of view, with respect to the freedom of will, like any other natural event are determined by universal laws. As dark as its causes, the story allows uspoint of view of the human race as a whole as a constant and progressive evolution, although slow. This is why, philosophically speaking Kant’s story turns out to be anthropological.
That is, it focuses on all the historical stages of humanity, which does not attribute to God, but to nature, man and its position. To do this, he develops important points in his work;All natural capabilities of a creature are destined to develop completely and in accordance. In man, those natural abilities directed towards the use of reason must be fully developed in the species, not in the individual. Nature has the will for man, completely alone, to produce everything that goes beyond the organization of his animal existence.
That is, nature uses, to carry out the development of all the capacities of man, the antagonism in society, which is in the end the cause of the order governed by law in society. The biggest problem for the human species is to achieve a universal civil society. Man is an animal that needs a teacher. The problem of establishing a perfect civil constitution depends on the problem of those governed by external relations laws between nations. The history of the human species can be considered, such as the realization of a hidden plan of nature, a philosophical attempt to elaborate a universal history of the world according to a plan of nature.
conclusion
Allowing in this way to aim. Finally, it is important to remember that history is deeply connected to politics. This essay is interesting because it establishes a productive course towards a really interesting peace objective and the cosmopolitan. Of course, Kant had his own problems. Perhaps this essay, written five years before the French Revolution, gives us not only information about the policy of the 18th and 19th centuries, but also an understanding of how we talk about politics now.
