Kant and modernity: what else can we do for each other?

Abstract

The issue raises the question: which aspects of Kant’s philosophy are especially actual for contemporary philosophical and public discussions? The author specifies three com­plexes of ideas which are the most actual: critical limitation of the competence sphere of scientific knowledge; formal grounding of moral without reference to the principle of reciprocity; explanation of religion through the search for its anthropological condi­tions of possibility. The author also evaluates the main achievements and deficits of Kant studies in the end of 20th – the beginning of 21st century precisely on the field of textology and edition by using digital technologies and methods.
