| Summary: | Kant’s legal and political philosophy is essential for understanding and
advancing international order. The article aims to posit arguments that
confront the claims that Kant was just war theorist. Since that is the most
opposed part of Kant’s political philosophy, mostly due to the misleading
interpretation of his argumentation, the author presents Kant’s standpoint
on the matters of just war and international order and discusses potential
ambiguities between Kant’s and his critics’ theories. Furthermore, the
consequences of opponents’ arguments considering states of states, world
republic and cosmopolitan democracy in contemporary political philosophy are
debated. Finally, the possibility of consent between the three model
solutions which are arising from the contemporary international order theory
and Kant’s position are compared and analysed. |
