Why is there so much attention on Kant's global politics in present day law and philosophy? This book highlights the potential fruitfulness of Kant's cosmopolitan thought for understanding the complexities of the contemporary political world. It adopts a double methodological strategy by reconstructing a genealogical conceptual journey showing the development of international law, as well as introducing an interpretation of cosmopolitanism centred on Kant's theory of a metaphysics of freedom. The result is a novel focus on Kant's notion of the world republic. The hypothesis here defended is that the world republic stands as a way of thinking about international politics where the possibility of progression towards peace results from its use as a regulative idea.

"…Claudio Corradetti presents us with the legal reasoning behind Kant's writings on international politics. Starting from the emergence of ideas of universal rights and global authority in modern international law, Corradetti gives a masterful account of the origins of Kant's argument in Towards Perpetual Peace (1795)… Not so much a pedagogical endeavour as a rich and somewhat contracted resource, this book turns Kant's 'perpetual peace' into a telescope for observing his broader philosophical universe while making an original contribution to the philosophy of international law and 'global constitutionalism'."
