Opis

This book uncovers Kant s hidden theory of cosmopolitan education within the framework of his overall practical philosophy. The Kant brought out here turns out to be very different from current mainstream appropriations, which erroneously consider him one of the founding fathers of the new cosmopolitanism . Kant s Embedded Cosmopolitanism is a valuable source for students of political philosophy and Kant s ethics."

Recenzje

"The book Kant's Embedded Cosmopolitanism. History, Philosophy and Education for World Citizens is an ambitious project which both deals with Kant's cosmopolitanism in the context of the late eighteenth century and analyses the uniqueness of Kant's cosmopolitan theory and its differences from contemporary trends. [...] It has to be studied in its complexity, especially with its essential republican and educational dimension."
Sandra Zákutná in: Con-Textos Kantianos. International Journal of Philosophy, N.o 3, Junio 2016, pp. 481-485

"I strongly recommend Kant's Embedded Cosmopolitanism to all readers who wish to learn more about both the historical sources and legacy of Kant's cosmopolitanism."
Robert B. Louden in: Kantian Review Volume 21 (2017), 2, S. 324-329
