The Midwest Study Group of the North American Kant Society was founded in 1995 by Manfred Kuehn, then at Purdue University, in order to advance the discussion of the work of Immanuel Kant and to promote interaction among Kant scholars. The MSG receives financial support from the North American Kant Society and from host universities.
Papers submitted for the meetings may discuss any topic in Kantian Studies. The term "Kantian Studies" is broadly conceived to include not only contemporary "Kantian" approaches to philosophical problems but also the discussion of Kant's immediate predecessors, contemporaries, and successors such as the German Idealists. (Here is a listing of past meeting programs.)
