World Community 5

Ethical and Political Foundations of Community

by Albert Anderson

The first four blogs of this series examined the model in which a single nation presides over a global empire. Now I will consider the idea of a common human community that preserves autonomy, mutual respect, and diversity. During the 18th century, sometimes called the age of enlightenment, thinkers in Europe and America developed a philosophy that justified the American Revolution and provided the fundamental principles on which the U.S. Constitution was developed. In this blog I will take a closer look at the ethical philosophy that grew out of the Enlightenment as part of the search for the foundations on which a world community might be based. Immanuel Kant wrote one of the definitive essays on the meaning of Enlightenment. Kant’s short work called “What is Enlightenment?” was published in 1784. Another much longer and far more comprehensive manuscript — The Fundamental Principles of the Metaphysics of Morals — was published in 1785. Those dates are significant because they fall between the American Revolution and the French Revolution, two events that have defined the way community is constructed in the modern world.
