In "The Value of Rational Nature," Donald Regan challenges a central argument of much recent Kantian moral philosophy. For such contemporary Kantian as Christine Korsgaard and Allen Wood, the heart of Kant's ethics is the claim that our capacities for rational deliberation and choise are unconditionally valuable. These Kantians hold that for Kant, the unconditional worth of our rational nature or "humanity" is presupposed by our ability to act for the sake of any values at all. According to this approach, morality is grounded in the norms that express a proper recognition of rational nature's preeminent value as the sine qua non of all possible value. We are supposedly committed to these norms insofar as we aspire to any coherent and nondelusive experience of practical deliberation and choise. On this view, moral skepticism may remain a minimally coherent philosophical option, but only at the cost of a thoroughgoing nihilism value in general.
