Fichtes praktische Philosophie

Meer over het boek

Johann Gottlieb Fichte (1762–1814) presented his philosophy as the "first system of liberty," emphasizing that philosophical theory should be rooted in life and connected to it. He argued that philosophical abstraction and reflection are inherently linked to social practice. Central to his practical philosophy is the belief in humanity's purpose of free self-determination. Fichte consistently acknowledges the social nature of human existence, questioning the rational standards that govern economic, legal, moral, and religious communities. Engaging with Fichte's practical philosophy offers valuable insights and prompts for critically reflecting on the roles of freedom and community in contemporary society.
