The Search for Strongholds of Integrative Thinking in Kant’s Theory of Knowledge

Summary/Abstract: The introduction of reflective potential contained in the works of Immanuel Kant in contemporary bioethical debate is conditioned by the developmental needs of bioethics. Therefore a brief analysis of epistemological part of Kant’s ouevre from the standpoint of contemporary bioethics (especially integrative bioethics) is given in this paper. The strongholds for methodological grounding and epistemological profiling of bioethical discipline are sought. There are at least two indications for the importance and necessity of such direction in the study of Kant’s philosophy as a right one: the theoretical assumptions that are already built into the methodological definition of integrative bioethics through the reception of Kaulbach’s interpretation of Kantian and post-Kantian philosophy; and acceptance of the crucial distinction between “meaningful and object truth” from which follows, for bioethics particularly important, epistemic difference between “dispositional and orientational knowledge”.
