CHARPENEL, Eduardo. Kantian Republicanism and Legal Normativity. Eidos [online]. 2020, n.32, pp.135-164.  Epub 01-Ago-2020. ISSN 1692-8857.  https://doi.org/10.14482/eidos.32.193.01.

In this paper, I defend the stance that republicanism -in comparison to other central notions- has not been interpreted as one of the main traits that characterize Kant’s legal and political philosophy. A plausible reason for this is that Kantian republicanism has not occupied a prominent place in the republican narratives, historiographical or systematic, that are dominant in contemporary discussions. To my mind, the reason for this is that some innovative characteristics in the Kantian republican enterprise are at odds with other republican philosophical projects. Here I discuss some distinctive traits of Kant’s project regarding his conceptions of the rule of law, citizenship, political authority, free speech, and international law with the aim of showing that they are an integral part of a political and legal theory that is still attractive and compelling.

Palavras-chave : Kant; philosophy of right; history of republicanism; modern philosophy; theory of legal normativity.
