| Research Abstract |
I reseached the concept of Kant's "freedom of the arbitrary" from the viewpoint of the connection with the concept of Alexander Gottlieb Baumgarten's "liberum arbitrium". Baumgarten considered the freedom in three steps (1. spontaneity, 2. arbitrary, 3. free arbitrary). Kant inherited and purified this distinction. Consequently, Kant's freedom of the arbitrary in his late writing "Religion within the boundaries of mere reason" also shouldn't imply "freedom of choice". Because the determining reason of free arbitrary is nothing but pure reason.
