Kant's Politics: Provisional Theory for an Uncertain World ReviewThis is a very interesting and useful book on Kant's politics, comprehensive, and able to reach our present politics with something direct to say.
One of the most interesting features of the discussion is that of 'freedom's causality'. The author very acutely isolates the crux of the politics of freedom with this discussion, which is open-ended since the question seems to be unsolved, despite Kant's great insight.
Here is a quote on this from the book:
What would "bridging nature and freedom" mean outside of politics? For Kant the big questions are nearly always epistemological: thus, bridging freedom and nature might mean specifying the conditions under which investigators of the empirical world (scientists) are able to find evidence of spontaneity in the physical world (that is, of freedom's causality). Either freedom and nature are strictly alternative perspectives on the same set of empirical occurrences, or there are some things in the world that can only be explained according to freedom (in other words, the second alternative posits empirical evidence that some thing has no antecedent cause). I am not the first person to point out that it is not an easy thing empirical evidence of a lack of a cause. Kant himself assumes that a good scientist will operate under the presumption that absent natural causes may eventually be discovered.
This question of freedom's causality is discussed in the reviewer's World History And The Eonic Effect (Amazon) where the paradox of freedom's causality is demonstrated with a new type of history model.
Ellis' book is cited in that text.
There is something brilliant about Kant's way of isolating the basic issue, without seeing an example. But, properly seen, world history shows exactly that which he inferred in the abstract.
Ellis' book is exceptionally clear, and useful for anyone who is looking for a clear, but deep discussion, of Kantian politics.
