  • Understanding Moral Obligation

    Kant, Hegel, Kierkegaard

    by Robert Stern ...
    Series series Modern European Philosophy
    In many histories of modern ethics, Kant is supposed to have ushered in an anti-realist or constructivist turn by holding that unless we ourselves 'author' or lay down moral norms and values for ourselves, our autonomy as agents will be threatened. In this book, Robert Stern challenges the cogency of this 'argument from autonomy', and claims that Kant never subscribed to it. Rather, it is not ... Read more

  • Idealism and Pragmatism

    Traditions in Dialogue

    Edited by Robert Stern ...
    This book explores the complex relationship between the philosophical schools of idealism and pragmatism. Idealism is the older tradition, with roots in Plato and Platonism, and has been developed in a myriad of forms. At heart, it holds that reality is either mind-like, or is contained in the mind. Pragmatism is a newer school, traceable to the work of philosophers such as C.S. Peirce and William ... Read more

  • Kantian Ethics

    Value, Agency, and Obligation

    by Robert Stern ...
    This volume presents a selection of Robert Stern's work on the theme of Kantian ethics. It begins by focusing on the relation between Kant's account of obligation and his view of autonomy, arguing that this leaves room for Kant to be a realist about value.

    by Immanuel Kant, Robert Stern ...
    Translated by Christopher Bennett, Joe Saunders ...
