Free will and determinism in Metaphysics

Kant's example

Abstract

This work is an analysis of metaphysics, of radonal theology (as metaphysics has been called), which is not as sterile as it may seem to the myopic vision of the majority. In addition to the objectives indicated, it has another purpose. And that is that many are determinists when it comes to science, but, out of a trace of pusillanimity, think that there may be powerful philosophical motives that can or should make them change their position when it comes to the so-called moral sciences. Finally, a theory exercises a power all the more seductive and deceptive over the minds of men, and they consider it all the more worthy of respect and observance, the more abstruse and impenetrable are the reasonings with which it is defended.

Gregorio Bermann (Buenos Aires, September 1, 1894; Córdoba, May 4, 1972) was an Argentine physician who stood out for having been one of the students who led the University Reform movement of 1918 in Córdoba, for his theoretical work from a socialist perspective on the reformist movement, and for his work in the field of psychiatry and psychology, which brought him worldwide recognition. Among his works, the book Juventud de América, one of the emblematic works of the reformist movement, stands out.
