Abstract:

In the literature, the significance of the principle of autonomy is usually discussed from the perspective of its difference from the principles of heteronomy. The principles of heteronomy undoubtedly represent a significant aspect of the "dependent will". But there are dependencies of the "dependent will" that are not based on the principles of heteronomy. Their reason is pure practical reason. These dependencies are not opposed to the good will, but make it possible. The topic of the lecture is these dependencies that make the good will of a "not necessarily good will" possible.
