Abstract
Kant's philosophy of history is not explicit. History, according to Kant, being the “idiotic course of all things human” is not worthy of a sustained and coherent philosophical critique.2 Kant's philosophy did, however, contain a notion pertaining to the nature of human progress and, thus, through a carefulreading of Kant, an implicit philosophy of history emerges.
