Abstract

In his understanding of imputation, developed centrally in the Metaphysics of Morals, Kant favors the point of view of the (real and ideal) judge who applies the moral law to an acting person. Reinhold, on the other hand, when speaking of imputation, emphasizes the role of the autonomous and scrupulous acting person. This is a consequence of his view that free will is the faculty of a morally capable person to decide for or against the moral law. Considering the relevant insights of both positions, I argue that the notion of imputation should be understood in a multi-perspective manner and in the sense of a multi-place relation.
