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