A ideia de insociável sociabilidade na filosofia da história de Immanuel Kant
Resumen
The present dissertation aims to analyze three essays from the german philosopher
Immanuel Kant that deal with his philosophy of history, highlighting within them the
concept of unsociable sociability. The essays are: Idea for a Universal History from a
Cosmopolitan Perspective, Conjectural Beginning of Human History and Toward
Perpetual Peace. In our understanding, it is possible to assume the idea of antagonism as a
guiding thread of an analysis of Kant's philosophy of history, insofar as it is shown that for
the philosopher the unsociable sociability is the source of all human progress. Our objective
is to highlight three historical philosophical moments in the analyzed texts, and to
demonstrate how antagonism is responsible for the passage from one moment to another,
thus, corroborating its importance.
