Answer to Question #319334 in Sociology for anele

Question

Engage in critical discussion on Immanuel Kant’s thoughts on the Enlightenment and its underlying philosophies

Answer 1

Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance.
