Grounding freedom in the moral philosophy of İmmanuel Kant

This study aims to anlyze freedom in Kant's moral philosophy. For this purpose, first of all, the general lines of Kant's moral philosophy are explained and examined within the framework of good will, duty and respect. If a person knows that he/she is free, he/she must indicate where this information comes from. Therefore, it is the most important aspect of our research to explain how this intentional source of information is in relation to moral imperative. From this point of view, the concept of freedom is examined as a second step and it is determined in terms of how it is related to moral philosophy. As an addition, the relationship between morality and freedom has been emphasized by questioning whether freedom is a reality for man and by evaluating it in terms of moral philosophy.
