This comprehensive treatment of Neo-Kantianism discusses the main topics and key figures of the movement and their intersection with other 20th-century philosophers. With the advent of phenomenology, existentialism, and the Frankfurt School, Neo-Kantianism was deemed too narrowly academic and science-oriented to compete with new directions in philosophy. These essays bring Neo-Kantianism back into contemporary philosophical discourse. They expand current views of the Neo-Kantians and reassess the movement and the philosophical traditions emerging from it. This groundbreaking volume provides new and important insights into the history of philosophy, the scope of transcendental thought, and Neo-Kantian influence on the sciences and intellectual culture.

Reviews for Neo-Kantianism in Contemporary Philosophy
"The extraordinary range of philosophers covered here is striking, from the physicist-cum-philosopher Hermann von Helmholtz to the axiologist and historian of philosophy Wilhelm Windelband."—European Journal of Philosophy "Neo-Kantianism in Contemporary Philosophy makes a significant contribution to this growing literature, and even accomplishes the more ambitious task of showing how Neo-Kantian thought can contribute to current debates.X (2010), no. 4"—Philosophy in Review "Both 'analytic' and 'continental' philosophy have turned to Neo-Kantianism as crucial to understanding their origins and critical to their own self-evaluations."—Stephen H. Watson, University of Notre Dame
