84 “This paper aims to offer an analysis of ‘Against Hobbes’, the title of the second section of Kant’s essay On
the Common Saying: That May be Correct in Theory but is of no Use in Practice. The paper suggests that
we should take the title ‘Against Hobbes’ seriously and that Kant meant to target Hobbes as the standardbearer
of the old regime and in particular Hobbes’s claim that the Head of state cannot act unjustly against
his citizens. It is argued that Kant’s interpretation of Hobbes conforms to what can be regarded as the
majority view in Hobbesian scholarship and that Kant poses a serious challenge to Hobbes, in so far as he
removes the very foundations from Hobbes’s argument on justice, namely, a specific notion of natural law.
Finally the paper highlights Kant’s lack of interest in engaging with possible Hobbesian counterarguments.”
85 “The author argues against Christine Korsgaard’s influential interpretation of Kant’s contradiction in
conception test of the categorical imperative. Korsgaard’s rejection of the ‘teleological’ interpretation is
shown to be based on a misunderstanding of the role that teleology plays for Kant in ruling out immoral
maxims, and her defence of the ‘practical’ interpretation is shown to be less faithful to the text than the
competing ‘logical’ interpretation. The works of Barbara Herman and Allen Wood are also discussed and
evaluated.”
86 “What is the proper task of Kantian ethical theory? This paper seeks to answer this question with reference
to Kant’s reply to Christian Garve in Section I of his 1793 essay on Theory and Practice. Kant reasserts the
distinctness and natural authority of our consciousness of the moral law. Every mature human being is a
moral professional – even philosophers like Garve, if only they forget about their ill-conceived ethical
systems and listen to the voice of pure practical reason. Normative theory, Kant argues, cannot be refuted
with reference to alleged experience. It is the proper task of the moral philosopher to emphasize this fact.
