Abstract

This article discusses the problem of freedom in the critical thinking of Kant, based on three moments. First, the way Kant poses and solves the problem of freedom in the third antinomy of the Critique of Pure Reason. Second, how Kant investigates the law of freedom in the Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals. Third, how Kant related law and freedom to demonstrate the objective reality of freedom in the Critique of Practical Reason. Centered in the triple sense, the article concludes that freedom is the keystone of reason and has only objective reality through a fact of the reason.
