Autor

Kenneth R. Westphal is Professor of Philosophy, Bogaziçi Üniversitesi (Istanbul). His research focuses on the character and scope of rational justification in non-formal, substantive domains, both moral (ethics, justice, history and philosophy of law, philosophy of education) and theoretical (epistemology, history and philosophy of science). His books include Kant's Transcendental Proof of Realism (Cambridge, 2004), How Hume and Kant Reconstruct Natural Law: Justifying Strict Objectivity without Debating Moral Realism (Clarendon, 2016), Grounds of Pragmatic Realism: Hegel's Internal Critique and Transformation of Kant's Critical Philosophy (Brill, 2018), Hegel's Civic Republicanism: Integrating Natural Law with Kant's Moral Constructivsm (Routledge, 2020) and Kant's Critical Epistemology: Why Epistemology must Consider Judgment First (Routledge, 2020). He is researching systematically history and philosophy of law, especially Montesquieu, G.W.F. Hegel and Rudolf von Jhering, to develop a cogent normative sociological theory of law and justice.
