Sobre la posibilidad de contrapartidas incongruentes temporales en el sistema kantiano.

Abstract

The problem of incongruent counterparts occupies a prominent place in Kant's system. During the critical period, Kant returns to the problem of counterparts to argue that space is a pure form of intuition. However, there seems to be no parallelism of this argument with respect to time. Kant does not explicitly present temporal incongruent counterparts. The aim of this paper is to analyze the problem of incongruent counterparts applied to the problem of time within the framework of Kant's critical philosophy. We will show that the closest analogue of the counterparts argument applied to time is found in the Dissertation of 1770. We will also exhibit the necessary reservations to transpolate the problem. The investigation consists of three parts. First, we will discuss the general problem of incongruent counterparts. Considering that there are numerous studies on this issue, we will limit ourselves to pointing out the general features of the problem that allow us to show how the incongruent counterparts can be applied to the case of time. Secondly, we will analyze the approaches that have been offered, studying their strengths and weaknesses. Finally, we will carry out a study of paragraph 14.2 of the Inaugural Dissertation of 1770, showing that in these passages, Kant presents an example of incongruent counterparts regarding temporal phenomena.
