Kant’ın Tıp Fakültesi Eleştirisi

Kant’ın Prusya üniversite sisteminde yönetimin amaçlarıyla uyumlu üst fakülteler (ilahiyat, hukuk ve tıp) ile yalnızca aklın yasalarına tabi olan alt fakülte (felsefe) arasın-daki çatışmaya dair yazdıkları, her zaman güçlü bir akademik ilginin konusu olmuştur. Fakat Kant’ın tıp fakültesi eleştirisinin diğerlerine kıyasla ihmal edilmiş olduğu da açık-tır. Bu makalede, Kant’ın tıbba dair görüşleri ve tıp fakültesine yönelik eleştirisinin temel hatları Aydınlanmanın tıpla olan yakın ilgisi, Alman tıbbını kendi içerisinde bölen geri-limler, yönetimin kamu sağlığı politikaları ile tıp disiplini arasındaki ilişkilerin statüsü ve nihayet felsefe ile tıp arasındaki karmaşık ilişkiler üzerinden gösterilmeye çalışılacak-tır.

Kant’s Critique of the Faculty of Medicine

Kant’s writings on the conflict between the higher faculties (theology, law, and medicine) whose teachings are compatible with the goals of the government itself and the lower faculty (philosophy) which is subject only to laws given by reason in the Prussian university system have always attracted strong academic interest. However, it is also clear that Kant’s critique of the faculty of medicine has been neglected compared to ohers. In this article, the main contours of Kant’s views on medicine and his criticism of the faculty of medicine will be discussed with reference to the Enlightenment’s close in-volvement with medicine, the tensions that divide German medicine within itself, the status of the relations between the government’s public health policies and the medical discipline, and finally, the complex relations between philosophy and medicine.
