Through the hyperbole of the people of devils Kant shows how right has the power to neutralize selfishness from the point of view of external action and thereby constitute a civil state. However, this state corresponds to a state of natural ethics, revealing that a juridical community can be formed withour eliminating radical evil. Therefore, right is moral without being ethical.Downloads
