Books by Georg Cavallar

Kant is not the philosopher who has his head in the clouds, but the philosopher seeking to bridge the gulf between the ideal and the real in international relations.

In der Reihe werden herausragende monographische Untersuchungen und Sammelbande zu allen Aspekten der Philosophie Kants veroffentlicht, ebenso zum systematischen Verhaltnis seiner Philosophie zu anderen philosophischen Ansatzen in Geschichte und Gegenwart. Veroffentlicht werden Studien, die einen innovativen Charakter haben und ausdruckliche Desiderate der Forschung erfullen. Die Publikationen reprasentieren damit den aktuellsten Stand der Forschung.
