This book focuses on the unity, diversity, and centrality of the notion of law as
it is employed in Kant's theoretical and practical philosophy. Eric Watkins argues
that, by thinking through a number of issues in various historical, scientific, and
philosophical contexts over several decades, Kant is able to develop a univocal concept
of law that can nonetheless be applied to a wide range of particular cases, despite
the diverse demands that these contexts give rise to. In addition, Watkins shows how
Kant comes to view both the generic conception of law which he develops and its different
particular instances as crucial components of his systematic philosophy as a whole.
This volume's new and unified account of a major current running through Kant's work
will be important for scholars interested in numerous aspects of his philosophy, from
the theoretical and abstract to the practical and empirical
