A Metafísica Dos Costumes by Immanuel Kant

Fundamentação da Metafísica dos Costumes

This philosophical work delves into the foundational principles of moral philosophy, exploring the nature of human duty and the concept of the categorical imperative. It argues that moral actions are not determined by their consequences but by the adherence to universal maxims that respect the autonomy and rationality of individuals. The text emphasizes the importance of acting out of duty rather than inclination, proposing that true morality stems from a sense of obligation rooted in reason and the inherent dignity of all rational beings.
