Kant y Marx: el problema de las colonias

Abstract

In this work our aim is to analyse the relationship of the philosophy of right by I. Kant and the thought of K. Marx, mostly for what concerns the «Doctrine of Right», elaborated by Kant in the Metaphysics of Morals. We want to show that the «Doctrine of Right», as opposed to what some traditional marxist spheres consider, is not the result of a bourgeois thought, but it is near to the central issues faced by K. Marx in his work Capital. In this way we individuate the common points of both the authors, aiming to the possibilities, that this philosophical conjunction can bring in the order of the philosophy of right to the present and the future of our societies. In particular we want to show how the questions faced in Capital introduce a sort of «empiric a priori», that the transcendental principle of right has to take into account in order not to be assimilated or excluded in the real world.
