Frankfurt Lectures „The Idea of the Public: Two Kantian Themes“
Lecture by Prof Arthur Ripstein (Faculty of Law and Department of Philosophy, University of Toronto)
The Kantian idea of freedom objects to any situation in which one person is subject to the private choice of another. Public institutions can only act through individual natural persons, and the decisions that they make will inevitably depend on particular features of those charged with making those decisions. In this Lecture I will explore the conditions under which such contingent decisions can nonetheless count as properly self-imposed by those who are subject to them.
