"Metaphysik und Weltbegriff bei Kant. Bemerkungen zu einer problemgeschichtlichen Konstellation".

The essay argues for metaphysics as a persisting challenge in Kant’s critical project. In its first part, the argumentation shows the relevance of metaphysics – as dealing with a cosmological concept of the world – with regard to the systematicity of Kant's philosophy and its Weltbegriff. In the second part, Kant’s transcendental restriction of metaphysics to the procedure of Verstand is critically discussed, thereby opening up a Hegelian perspective.
