Zum ewigen Frieden. Ein philosophischer Entwurf
'Zum ewigen Frieden. Ein philosophischer Entwurf' Summary
In "Zum ewigen Frieden," Immanuel Kant argues that lasting peace is not a natural state but a goal that must be actively pursued. To achieve this goal, he suggests that nations should abandon their pursuit of power and instead embrace a system of international law based on reason and morality. Kant envisions a world where states are governed by republics and where individuals are free from arbitrary power. He emphasizes the importance of freedom and human rights, advocating for a universal system of justice that transcends national borders. The essay explores various aspects of international relations, including the nature of war, the role of diplomacy, and the importance of international cooperation. Kant's ideas, while written in the 18th century, remain relevant to contemporary debates about international peace, justice, and global governance.Book Details
