Summary/Abstract: The author discusses Kant's philosophical work "Eternal Peace". The work was published in 1795 and had a great influence on the development of the specific political and legal theories in the 19th century Europe. The influence of this work grew as time passed by, and reached its peak in the 20th century. The First and Second World War made the issue of peace between people subject of the philosophical interest. Kant viewed the idea of peace as a philosophical issue and as a central problem of each philosophy. Without peace nothing has sense in human life. This is why Otfricd Hoffe released an anthology in the honour of the 200 anniversary of Kant's work. All the authors presented in this anthology underline the huge importance of Eternal Peace.
