In anticipation of the 300th anniversary of Immanuel Kant's birth\, this extended seminar assembles leading scholars to discuss Kant. The lectures in the seminar will focus on Kant's practical philosophy broadly conceived\, examining its relevance to many pressing issues confronting individuals and societies today\, such as ethical challenges posed by new technologies and the crisis of liberal democracy and spirituality in post-secular times.
