Abstract: \;

\n

The paper connects the debate about Kant&rsquo\;s \;capacitism \;with the debate about additive and transformative rationality. It proposes to conceive Kant&rsquo\;s \;capacitism \;as \;faculty-capacitism. On this view\, faculty and capacity must be distinguished because it is \;only \;by means of \;its unique capacity that a faculty can be individuated and \;characterized. Kantian faculty-capacitism\, it is then argued\, makes a good case against the dichotomy of additive vs. transformative conceptions of rationality and shows why Kantian rationality is \;rather subtractive.
