• Resumen

  • In his Metaphysical Foundations of Natural Science, Kant outlines a theory of matter that is radically dynamical in the sense that it transforms matter itself to fundamental attractive and repulsive forces. The paper discusses the indebtedness as well as the opposition of Kant’s conception of force and matter to both Leibniz’s and Newton’s dynamical theories. The paper explores (a) Kant’s conception of material substance as a sum total of motive forces, of relational properties, (b) his conception of the natural order based on those innate forces as an immanent order of material things and (c) his account of the a priori derivation of the fundamental forces.
