The critique of practical reason
Book •
Immanuel Kant's "Critique of Practical Reason" complements his "Critique of Pure Reason," shifting focus from theoretical knowledge to practical reason and morality.
Here, Kant introduces the categorical imperative, a central concept in deontological ethics.
He argues that moral actions are those performed out of duty, guided by universalizable maxims.
The work explores the relationship between freedom, morality, and the possibility of a moral law.
It significantly influenced ethical theory and continues to be a subject of intense philosophical discussion.
Kant's exploration of practical reason remains a cornerstone of modern ethical thought.
