The 4th \;Edition of the International Workshop on Nietzsche and Kant: \;Kant and Nietzsche on Religion \;will be focused on the way Nietzsche received\, adopted\, rejected\, radicalized and criticized the Kantian philosophical treatment of both religious concepts and experience. That involves Kant´\;s rejection of the modern philosophical project of grounding religious belief upon demonstrative reasoning\, that is\, his rejection of conventional natural theology\, as well as his argumentative strategies and dialectical attempts at making plausible the alternative project of grounding the content of religious belief upon moral reasoning\, and his account of the relationship between religion and philosophy of history and politics in works such asCritique of Pure Reason\, \;Critique of Practical Reason\, \;Critique of Judgment\, \;Religion within the Boundaries of mere Reason\, \;Perpetual Peace\, \;The Conflict of the Faculties.
\nAs it is well known\, Nietzsche reacted strongly against the Kantian project of interpreting religion from an exclusively moral point of view. But at the same time it could be said that Nietzsche does not only maintain\, but he also emphasizes\, even in his genealogical approaches\, the intimate links between religion and morality pointed out by Kant. At least for Christianity and particularly for the Protestant Tradition Nietzsche is inclined to see the Kantian reading as a correct one\, certainly not in the normative sense Kant had originally recommended it\, but rather in his own &lsquo\;descriptive&rsquo\; and genealogical sense of a rebellion of slaves in morality.
