The concept of autonomy is one of Kant's central legacies for
contemporary moral thought. We often invoke autonomy as both a
moral ideal and a human right, especially a right to determine
oneself independently of foreign determinants; indeed, to violate a
person's autonomy is considered to be a serious moral offence. Yet
while contemporary philosophy claims Kant as the originator of its
notion of autonomy, Kant's own conception of the term seems to
differ in important respects from our present-day interpretation.
Kant on Moral Autonomy brings together a distinguished group of
scholars who explore the following questions: what is Kant's
conception of autonomy? What is its history and its influence on
contemporary conceptions? And what is its moral significance? Their
essays will be of interest both to scholars and students working on
Kantian moral philosophy and to anyone interested in the subject of
autonomy.
