Based on an insightful and innovative reading of Kant’s theory of knowledge, this book explores the political implications of Kant’s philosophical writings on knowledge. It suggests that Kant offers a stable foundation for the reconsideration of the idea of progress as crucial in matters of political management at the outset of the 21st Century.
