Immanuel Kant's Fundamental Key points of the Metaphysics of Morals, first published in 1785, lays out Kant's essential idea and defines the principles and arguments that could form his later work. Central to Kant's doctrine is the categorical imperative, which he defines as a mandate that individuals actions should comply with a universal, unchanging standard of logical morality. Directly against utilitarian idea, Kant's ideas have been broadly influential since their publication and stand as a seminal contribution to ethical thought. Although Kant extended upon the ideas defined here in his later work, like the Critique of Pure Reason and the Metaphysics of Morals, it is his Important Key points of the Metaphysics of Morals that they are communicated in their most clear, concise form.
