Abstract

Kant is invariably read by his followers as antipathetic to all forms of nationalism. Yet he was interested in differences of national character and used an organic metaphor to explain why states should not be broken up or annexed (unfortunately he never commented explicitly on the dismemberment of Poland by Prussia and its allies). He favoured a plural world in which national differences of language and religion prevented the emergence of despotic world government. So his acknowledgement of a limited obligation to provide refuge to vulnerable people should not be amplified into an acceptance of culturally disruptive mass migration.

康德、民族国家与移民

康德的追随者总是把他解读为反感一切形式的民族主义。然而，他对民族性格的差异很感兴趣，并用一个有机的比喻来解释为什么国家不应该被分裂或吞并（遗憾的是，他从未明确评论过普鲁士及其盟国对波兰的肢解）。他主张建立一个多元世界，在这个世界上，语言和宗教的民族差异会阻止专制世界政府的出现。因此，他对为弱势人群提供避难所的有限义务的认可不应被放大为对具有文化破坏性的大规模移民的接受。

期刊介绍： The journal aims to publish the best contemporary work on Kant and Kantian issues and places an emphasis on those current philosophical debates which reflect a Kantian influence. Almost all recent Western philosophy makes some reference to the work of Kant, either consciously rejecting or consciously endorsing some aspect of that work. In epistemology, in philosophy of mind and language, in moral and political philosophy, and in aesthetics, such Kantian influences are widely acknowledged and extensively discussed. Kant"s work has also increasingly become a concern for the social and political sciences. The journal strengthens this interest both by establishing interpretations of Kant"s own writing and by discussing the substance of the related current philosophical debates.
