Abstract
Why John Dewey’s Icarian Attempt, to Soar Up as Mediator Between Kant and Hitler, was a Veritable Flop
In the first chapter I deal with Dewey’s critique of German politics as influenced by classical Germany philosophy and especially by Immanuel Kant. Since Dewey saw in the complex of ’philosophical’ influences two theorems as crucial, namely Kant’s distinction between a sensible and a supersensible realm and Kant’s doctrine of the categorical imperative, I shall deal in two further chapters with these doctrines.Table of Contents
