In section 1, I illustrate the paradoxicality of radical evil and the novelty of Kant\u2019s \u201cempowering\u201d conception focused on human agency. In section 2, I argue that radical evil entails a normative variety of unintelligibility, signaling lack of self-knowledge and self-alienation. In section 3, I show that the (moral) opacity of maxims does not undermine one\u2019s awareness of the moral law, does not prevent self and co-legislation, and therefore does not preclude the exercise of moral agency. In section 4, I account for the distinctive functions of hope and faith, denying that they are complementary. In sections 5 and 6, I argue that the reliance on hope or faith points to different modes of contrasting evil by organizing human agency in institutional forms. In section 7, I conclude that the most powerful response to radical evil is the organization of shared agency \u2013 a communal, ethical, political, and institutional enterprise.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Location:<\/strong> Online but streamed from Edgecliffe G03<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title:\u00a0Hope and the Powers of Shared Agency Abstract: This paper argues that Kant\u2019s theory of radical evil exalts the powers of organized, shared and institutional, agency.
