Recent literature on Kant’s Opus postumum has typically focused on two parts of the drafts: the ether proofs and the Selbstsetzungslehre. Eckart Förster’s interpretation is representative of this tendency and, moreover, presents the Selbstsetzungslehre as the culmination of Kant’s late project. By contrast, I argue that the drafts of fascicles X/XI, written in between the ether proofs and the Selbstsetzungslehre, are of primary importance for ...

This paper reconsiders the relationship between demographic (vital) migration and urban ...

This study examines when and why internal job transitions enhance employees’ motivation and retention.

The MILESTONE (Managing the Link and Strengthening Transition from Child to Adult Mental Healthcare) study evaluates the longitudinal course and outcomes of adolescents approaching the transition boundary (TB) of their CAMHS and determines the effectiveness ...

When a social protest movement against social inequality and injustice erupted in Chile in 2019, soon connections were made with the history of dictatorship (1973-1990). These protests suggest that the transition towards democracy, initiated in 1990, is far from finished. The victim-survivors of human rights violations during the military regime have mobilized, organized and expressed themselves in different ways, both during the dictatorship ...

With regard to the notion of agency in the context of Islam, we have stressed the necessity of broadening the liberal-progressive definition of agency. In the case of Islamic conversion in the West, the capacity to endure, to struggle, to shape the self ethically (in order to come closer to God) is just as important as the conventional interpretation of agency.
