Summary

"Perpetual Peace: A Philosophical Essay" by Immanuel Kant, is a compelling exploration into the possibility of enduring global peace. It grapples with the challenges of human nature and international relations, arguing for moral principles and political systems that could prevent war between countries. Framing his ideas within the context of historical peace movements and philosophical thought, Kant imagines a world where nations unite in cooperation under a system of law with republican governments that will establish a moral standard for all governance.

About the Author

Immanuel Kant was a German philosopher and one of the central Enlightenment thinkers. Born in Königsberg, Kant's comprehensive and systematic works in epistemology, metaphysics, ethics, and aesthetics have made him one of the most influential and controversial figures in modern Western philosophy. He has been called the "father of modern ethics", the "father of modern aesthetics", and for bringing together rationalism and empiricism has earned the title of "father of modern philosophy".
