Kant lived in the time of Adam Smith, Malthus and David Ricardo , but did not know any of them. His long life (80 years in the eighteenth century), barely moving from his "people" made him think a lot.
Life "boring" that has been passed into history as a paradigm of methodical and routine existence . Always lived in the present Kaliningrad (now Russia, before Prussia). is known for his habit of taking an evening stroll, a day at the same time and with identical course, to the point that it became a sort of time signal to their fellow citizens is that the only exception was the day that the reading of Emile, Rousseau, he absorbed enough to make him forget his walk, a fact that raised the alarm of his acquaintances.
Among his most notable is the Review of Pure Reason , usually qualified as a turning point in the history of philosophy and the beginning of modern philosophy. It investigates the structure of reason.
Kant wrote very little about economics, except when speaking of the Public Debt as a positive source of funding and promotion of the domestic economy (improved roads, new settlements, savings for the bad years, etc.). but as risk from foreign powers. It is a "treasure" against the war that only exhausted by the fall in prices (which will remain a long time for its beneficial effect on trade ...). Thus, Kant was already seeing the benefits of a devaluation of the currency for trade between the powers. China and Japan are the largest holders of U.S. Debt ... and we see the risk to which Kant alluded after the catastrophe of 11-M. The massive sales of debt in markets were negatively impacted by exchange rates ...
Kant's thought was influential in the Germany of his time, and Hegel knew how to interpret the analytical thinking, using in some of his works ... the German idealism , modern bourgeois society of his time ...
When Marx entered the University to study law, was captivated by the lively debate on Hegelian philosophy in Berlin in 1830 and for whom Hegelian orthodoxy wanted to turn into a radical social doctrine .... Marx but speak in another article.
