Abstract
The following is a review of the Fifth International Summer School for Young Scholars and Students, held on the eve of the tercentenary of Kant’s birth, and devoted to the question of the relevance of his philosophical ideas for understanding and solving the problems that confront humankind in the twenty-first century. The event was organized by the Academia Kantiana of the Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University, with the support of the RF Ministry of Science and Higher Education and the Petersburg Dialog Forum, in Kaliningrad on 14—20 August 2023. The School engaged with the following themes: Kant and the philosophy of consciousness, Kant’s philosophy of law, Kant’s philosophy of religion, and Kant’s political philosophy. The programme included eight lectures, as well as thematic seminars; their content is reviewed below. As part of the conference of young scholars, 60 studies were presented in poster format. Discussion centred around questions of the interpretation of Kant’s legacy in the context of contemporary challenges and philosophical trends. The Summer School covered a wide range of topics, from epistemology and metaphysics, to ethics, political philosophy, literature, and more.
