DESCRIPTION:<p>This conference explores the view of democracy of those who in the 1790s sought to develop a Kantian legal and political philosophy</p>\n<p>Recent years have seen a new interest in exploring philosophers in Kant&rsquo\;s context\, both for their significance to Kant and in their own right. This conference explores the legal and political philosophy of those who in the 1790s sought to develop a Kantian legal and political philosophy. These &ldquo\;Kantians&rdquo\; include\, but are not limited to\, Johann Benjamin Erhard\, Salomon Maimon\, Karl Heinrich Heydenreich\, Johann Adam Bergk\, Karl Leonhard Reinhold\, Johann Heinrich Tieftrunk\, Johann Anselm Feuerbach\, Ludwig Heinrich Jakob\, Elise Reimarus\, Theodor Schmalz\, Friedrich Schlegel\, and the early Johann Gottlieb Fichte. The conference explores their views of what we today call democracy\, but which at the time was often called republicanism\, i.e. the legal and political principles for a constitution establishing equality\, freedom\, political rights\, popular sovereignty\, and the rule of law. The conference will include papers on these philosophers as well as papers on their relation to Kant.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>The conference is the first annual conference of the project KanDem -- Kantian Foundations of Democracy\, please find more information at KanDem UiO.</p>\n<p>Program</p>\n<p><strong>Friday\, 5.
