The idea of a final end of human conduct - the highest good - plays
an important role in Kant's philosophy. Unlike his predecessors
Kant defines the highest good as a combination of two heterogeneous
elements, namely virtue and happiness. This conception lies at the
centre of some of the most influential Kantian doctrines such as
his famous "moral argument" for the rationality of faith, his
conception of the unity of reason and his views concerning the
final end of nature as well as the historical progress of mankind.
To be sure, the different treatments of the highest good in Kant's
work have led to a great deal of discussion among his readers.
Besides Kant's arguments for moral faith, recent debate has focused
on the place of the highest good within Kant's moral theory, on the
antinomy of pure practical reason, and on the idea of the primacy
of practical reason. This collection of new essays attempts to
re-evaluate Kant's doctrine of the highest good and to determine
its relevance for contemporary philosophy.
