Kant's ethical thought

"This is a major new study of Kant's ethics that will transform the way students and scholars approach the subject in the future."--BOOK JACKET. "Allen Wood argues that Kant's ethical vision is grounded in the idea of the dignity of the rational nature of every human being. Undergoing both natural competitiveness and social antagonism, the human species, according to Kant, develops the rational capacity to struggle against its impulses, toward a human community in which the ends of all are to harmonize and coincide."--BOOK JACKET. "This comprehensive study will be of critical importance to students of moral philosophy, the history of ideas, political theory, and religious studies."--BOOK JACKET.
