Immanuel Kant on State (Polity) - Dictionary of Arguments
Höffe I 311 State/Kant/Höffe: According to (...) Hobbes one seeks peace out of fear of death and the desire for happiness. KantVsHobbes: In Kant's strict rationale, these pragmatic motives have no space. The salvation of the state lies not in happiness but in the rational community of external freedom. Not because no more blood flows and peace therefore being charitable, is demanded by reason, but because under this condition alone the right dictated by reason becomes real. >Contract Theory/Kant, >Legislation/Kant, >Natural State/Kant._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
