«Ideas para una historia universal en clave cosmopolita y otros escritos sobre filosofía de la historia» is Immanuel Kant's essay on the philosophy of history, published by Tecnos in paperback (152 pages, in Spanish).
The work brings together Kant's writings on the philosophy of history and, taking as its axis the essay that gives the volume its title, argues that the course of humanity can be read as a process oriented towards a society governed by law and freedom. In that cosmopolitan key, Kant reflects on the moral and political progress of peoples and on the rational meaning of universal history.
The volume belongs to the collection «Clásicos del pensamiento» and includes the preliminary study by Roberto Rodríguez Aramayo and the translation by Concha Roldán Panadero and Roberto Rodríguez Aramayo. The main essay was originally published in 1784 under the title «Idee zu einer allgemeinen Geschichte in weltbürgerlicher Absicht».
Reading for students and enthusiasts of philosophy, political theory and the history of thought, interested in the Kantian vision of progress and cosmopolitanism.
Immanuel Kant was a German philosopher. Born in Königsberg in the Kingdom of Prussia, he is considered one of the central thinkers of the Enlightenment. His comprehensive and systematic works in epistemology, metaphysics, logic, ethics, aesthetics, political theory, and the philosophy of religion have made him one of the most influential and highly discussed figures in modern Western philosophy.
