Ethics at the intersection of Kant and Aristotle. An interview with Christine M. Korsgaard

Abstract

In this interview Christine M. Korsgaard answers several questions on her particular interpretation of Kant’s moral philosophy. More specifically, she dwells on the role of the noumenal/phenomenal distinction for a better understanding of Kant’s idea of practical reason, as well as on the compatibility between Aristotelian and Kantian practical reason. In addition, she answers a couple of more general questions on the perspectives and challenges of contemporary ethical theory.
