Milan Kangrga – Thought and Boundaries

Emil Kušan ; Marina, Croatia

Abstract

When we talk about 20th century philosophy in Southeast Europe, Milan Kangrga is one of the names we certainly must cover. Because of this, the paper tries to provide a general presentation of his philosophical thought, from its Praxis roots to the end of the mature, speculative thought on the road from Kant to Hegel, and especially Marx as its final destination. Particular attention is paid to the ethical teachings of Milan Kangrga, as well as to the broader implications of some key moments in his thought, notably the problem of a system of ethics existing within a speculative Marxist framework. One of the main ideas of the paper is that through a critical overview of the thesis of this particular philosopher one might derive a valid point of view as far as the philosophical trends in Southeast Europe are concerned.
