    Kant’s Conception of Human Dignity: Unravelling the Moral Fabric of Humanity
    (University of North Bengal, 2025) Ghosh, Riya
    This paper demonstrates the significance of the Kantian prescriptive on humanity in understanding the essence of human dignity for the larger good of humanity. In this regard, the purpose of this study is to specify the importance of the three formulations of the Categorical Imperative in promoting human dignity. Here, I want to portray how Kant’s moral system gives us a way to foster human dignity. This paper responds to the following questions: Is there any gap between the Kantian conception of human dignity and how humans perceive human dignity? How Kantian morality is crucial in preserving human dignity in today’s world? This paper also seeks to define what humans must do to promote and sustain human dignity under the Kantian moral framework.
