Immanuel Kant, Autonomy, and a Respect for Liberty

Abstract: This 5 page report discusses the philosophy of Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) and how it relates to public policy. According to Kant, for an action to have true moral worth, it must be done from and not merely in accord with duty. Public policy requires a certain action and does not necessarily require any sense of individual autonomy and liberty. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
