Kant's Doctrine of Religion As Political Philosophy
Kant's Doctrine of Religion as Political Philosophy Author: Phillip David Wodzinski Persistent link: http://hdl.handle.net/2345/987 This work is posted on eScholarship@BC, Boston College University Libraries. Boston College Electronic Thesis or Dissertation, 2009 Copyright is held by the author, with all rights reserved, unless otherwise noted. Boston College The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Department of Political Science KANT’S DOCTRINE OF RELIGION AS POLITICAL PHILOSOPHY a dissertation by PHILLIP WODZINSKI submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2009 © copyright by PHILLIP DAVID WODZINSKI 2009 ABSTRACT Kant’s Doctrine of Religion as Political Philosophy Phillip Wodzinski Advisor: Susan Shell, Ph.D. Through a close reading of Immanuel Kant’s late book, Religion within the Boundaries of Mere Reason, the dissertation clarifies the political element in Kant’s doctrine of religion and so contributes to a wider conception of his political philosophy. Kant’s political philosophy of religion, in addition to extending and further animating his moral doctrine, interprets religion in such a way as to give the Christian faith a moral grounding that will make possible, and even be an agent of, the improvement of social and political life. The dissertation emphasizes the wholeness and structure of Religion within the Boundaries of Mere Reason as a book, for the teaching of the book is not exhausted by the articulation of its doctrine but also includes both the fact and the manner of its expression: the reader learns most fully from Kant by giving attention to the structure and tone of the book as well as to its stated content and argumentation. -

CONTENTS Introduction (Nicole Gnesotto) An overview of the problem (Pierre Hassner) Ethnic conflicts, or the revival of nationalism (Dieter Senghaas) The conditions for peace (Carlos Zaldivar) The politics of military intervention within Europe (Lawrence Freedman) The ramifications of war (Stefano Silvestri) INTRODUCTION Nicole Gnesotto(1) For more than two years, wars and atrocities all too reminiscent of another epoch have set in--perhaps permanently--in the heart of Europe. Yet the Continent is for the most part focused towards its prosperity, its restored security and the extension of fundamental liberties. This coexistence of peace and war is not attributable solely to the collapse of the former Yugoslavia. In the former Soviet Union as a whole the pattern is echoed in one republic or another and threatens at any moment to spread to Russia itself, or to involve Russia and one or other of those republics. For over forty years the communist threat and nuclear deterrence froze the march of history in Europe, under the double seal of relative stability for the whole continent and a tyranny clearly reserved for its eastern part. -

PART III VOICES of the GREAT MEN of the PAST: PERENNIAL DEBATES Scott Nelson and José Colen
PART III VOICES OF THE GREAT MEN OF THE PAST: PERENNIAL DEBATES Scott Nelson and José Colen any analyses of Raymond Aron’s books refer to his exceptionally sharp Mand subtle intelligence and stress his legacy as an educator, but neither his intellectual subtlety nor his role as a teacher are themselves enough to endow his work with a permanent value. Concerning this matter, Aron himself had no doubts: the contact with exceptional intellects who aspired to be considered at the same level as the “greats of the past” acted as reality’s alarm bell. Indeed, while Aron clearly had a great gift for lucid commentary on the philosophy of history, international relations, and political theory, he was also a generous and careful critic of many contemporary and past thinkers. He once remarked that he did not measure his thoughts against those great past thinkers, but preferred to cite them, to interpret them, and to continue their efforts.1 He has offered posterity some valuable praise and criticism of their ideas, to say nothing of his refining their methods and concepts with a view to analyzing his own time. As such, Aron’s insights into other thinkers often serve as an excellent introduction to their own works as well as Aron’s, and they are also a starting point for the analysis of today’s societies. The chapters included in this section introduce us to some of the most impor- tant conversations in which Aron participated. The texts in this section have been ordered chronologically, roughly according to the period a thinker entered Aron’s intellectual life. -

Morality and International Violence Gilles Andréani and Pierre Hassner
Morality and International Violence Gilles Andréani and Pierre Hassner In 2003, Pierre Hassner began conducting a seminar on ethics and international relations at the Centre d’Études et de Recherches Internationals (CERI). The object of the seminar, initiated by Gilles Andreani, then director of the Foreign Ministry’s Centre d’Analyse et de Prévision, and supported by this organization and the German Marshall Fund, was to compare the views formulated by philosophers and intellectuals with those of practitioners with regard to the moral dilemmas emerging from new dimensions in international relations. The role of nuclear weapons had been the focus of similar analysis during the Cold War. The seminar attempted to examine the issues which have replaced dissuasion at the heart of moral dilemmas and international action: humanitarian intervention, the use of force, international sanctions and courts, the fight against terrorism and the world order. It sought to introduce a comparative perspective by examining the ways in which these issues fostered divisions or consensus between the United States and Europe at a time when the Iraq war was subjecting transatlantic relations to unprecedented tensions. The seminar gave rise to a collection of essays by contributors from France and elsewhere, including Stanley Hoffmann, Antoine Garapon, Pierre Buhler, Sir Adam Roberts, Christoph Bertram and Michael Glennon. Entitled Justifier la guerre? De l’humanitaire au contre-terrorisme (Justified War? From Humanitarianism to Counter-Terrorism), it will be published in the autumn by Presses de Sciences Po. We are grateful to Pierre Hassner and Gilles Andreani for permission to print their introduction to the book in advance of publication. -

Dewey Number 149.2 © Murielle Cozette Department of International Relations Working Papers The Department’s Working Paper series provides readers with access to current research on international relations. Reflecting the Department’s intellectual profile, the series includes topics on the general theoretical and empirical study of international and global politics, the political dynamics and developments in the Asia–Pacific region, and the intersection between the two. The Working Papers series provides a vehicle for the circulation of work- in-progress, one objective being to enable authors to gain feedback before completion of their projects. Circulation of manuscripts as Working Papers does not preclude their subsequent publication as journal articles or book chapters. Unless otherwise stated, publications of the Department of International Relations are presented without endorsement as contributions to the public record and debate. Authors are responsible for their own analysis and conclusions. Abstract The realism school of thought in international relations is often accused of presenting politics as an autonomous sphere which does or should exclude ethical considerations, and of providing a tragic vision of politics which precludes any belief in progress. -
