520 1 $a"Fichte and Kant on Freedom, Rights, and Law provides the first book-length introduction to the theories of these two important thinkers. Gunnar Beck provides a critical analysis of the underlying normative foundations of Fichte's and Kant's theories of rights as the central theme around which the broader discussion is structured, as well as an overview of the metaphysical and epistemological edifice underpinning their thinking. Beck's study demonstrates that Fichte's and Kant's respective theories of law and natural rights call into question the analytical link between autonomy and a rights-based political liberalism in crucial respects. Contrary to received scholarship, Beck concludes that Kant's theory of rights, like Fichte's, contains an unsettling message for many incompletely reasoned contemporary liberal theories of rights, which rarely discuss those additional ontological, epistemological, and psychological foundations on which the defense of liberal individualistic rights ultimately rests. Fichte and Kant on Freedom, Rights, and Law is an essential book for scholars of these two philosophers."--BOOK JACKET.
