  Godel, Kant, and the Path of a Science
 
 
Title: Godel, Kant, and the Path of a Science
Author: Kovac, Srecko
Appeared in: Inquiry
Paging: Volume 51 (2008) nr. 2 pages 147-169
Year: 2008
Contents: Godel's philosophical views were to a significant extent influenced by the study not only of Leibniz and Husserl, but also of Kant. Both Godel and Kant aimed at the secure foundation of philosophy, the certainty of knowledge and the solvability of all meaningful problems in philosophy. In this paper, parallels between the foundational crisis of metaphysics in Kant's view and the foundational crisis of mathematics in Godel's view are elaborated, especially regarding the problem of finding the “secure path of a science” for both mathematics and philosophy. Godel's temporal subjectivism and metaphysical conceptual objectivism are presented as positively or negatively motivated by Kant's viewpoints. A remark on Godel's collapse of modalities (in accordance with the collapse of objective time) is added.
