IMMANUEL KANT’S VISION OF THE RIGHT OF NATIONS

Original language description

The purpose of this article is to present Kant’s theory of the Right of Nations, which is the essential part of present-day international law debate. In his philosophical work, „Towards Perpetual Peace”, Immanuel Kant is inquiring conditions for co-existence between the states. According to Kant, three elementary conditions lead us toward perpetual peace: 1) Republican government 2) Federation of Free States 3) Cosmopolitan right of a person to a world citizenship Federation of Free States has an important place in Kant’s vision of the rights of nations and perpetual peace as a final goal of this doctrine. It is crucial for better understanding of Kant’s position on the rights of nations. It is also the most objected part of Immanuel Kant’s political philosophy by various contemporary critics and therefore demands further exploration and analysis. At first, a brief overview of the history of the law of nations, considering the arguments that preceded Kant’s theory will be given. Further analysis of Kant’s work should clear his position and offer an argument in support of his general ideas, reply to the objections and critics of his arguments and evaluate pro and contra opinions. Finally, the consequences of such argumentation and their influence on contemporary political thinking will be discussed. The possibility of appropriate consensus solution will be considered.
