According to this aim, I suggest accurately telling apart two counterpoised claims in Kant’s political philosophy: his non-contractarian notion of the omnilateral will, which diminishes the weight of the standpoint assumed by individual subjects, and his cosmopolitan account of the universal interaction that civil agents display as subjects living on the same planet. I first claim that Kant’s model of the republican state does not appear as the ideal institutional framework for beings endowed with the dignity he assigns to humans. Second, I will attempt to evaluate the enlargement of the view of social agency that Kant’s treatment of equity urges, following the interpretative path that Pinheiro Walla furnished in some recent papers. Finally, I will address the limitations of Kant’s account of social justice for overcoming contemporary social quandaries.engKant on social suffering: vulnerability as moral and legal valuebook parthttps://doi.org/10.4324/9781003033837-7https://www.routledge.com/Kant-and-the-Problem-of-Politics-Rethinking-the-Contemporary-World/Caranti-Pinzani/p/book/9781032289403https://produccioncientifica.ucm.es/documentos/63b996ad4386723d2da371abrestricted access321.01172Immanuel KantMoralityCosmopolitanismFilosofía7207 Filosofía Social7207.04 Filosofía Política
