SOME CONSEQUENCES CONCERNING LAW WITH REFERENCE TO KANT’S ARTICLE ENTITLED “AN ANSWER TO THE QUESTION ‘WHAT IS ENLIGHTENMENT?’”

Abstract

When Kant’s article entitled “An Answer to the Question ‘What is Enlightenment?’” is considered, it can be said that the article incorporates some thoughts as a clue for some solution offers to the question what are the conditions that a law system may not exist without. I believe that what can be concluded from this may be addressed in three headings: Firstly, what should the basic rule in law be? Kant considered free use of reason in public, when expressed in today’s language freedom of expression, as the most fundamental condition required for enlightenment. When considered from this point of view, it can be alleged that this standard of Kant should establish the content of the basic norm which all law systems should be based on. Secondly, how can we change laws? Changing of the norm by the norm maker and where to focus upon for in which direction this change should be done becomes clarified in Kant’s article. This is nothing more than the thoughts of a person who adopted it a life style to obey these norms, revealed within the frame of freedom of expression. Finally, from Kant’s article we can learn that law should be deterrence
