Practical Philosophy and Philosophy - 2005.

In Fichte’s philosophy a practical original strain, which expresses itself in the moral law, accounts for the Kantian priority of the praxis. This basic priority pertains to any kind of knowledge, and then to the very philosophy. Fichte’s theory, which is built out of a demand of transformation, converges with that Habermas called in the sixties the emancipatory interest, while he asserted the normativeness of the selfreflection.
