Abstract

Economic theory has made several attempts at integrating the Kantian categorical imperative. Mark D. White recently proposed such an analysis. This is a comment on his article. Our commentary on White's article shall be presented through two distinct sections. We shall first discuss the status of obligations and then finally link the debate to the philosophical question of internalism.
