The paper explains the "Kantian Inquiry System" that Mitroff and Pondy propose regarding policy analysis and and applies this system to welfare reform policy and the Fair Labor Standards Act.
From the Paper:
"The philosopher Immanuel Kant wrote his treatise, A Critique of Pure Reason, as a way of striking a balance between rationalistic and empiricist modalities of acquiring knowledge. It was not possible, Kant stated, to live in the world and to merely understand knowledge through one's mind and preexisting rational cognitive faculties. The mind could have tricks played upon it in terms of its sensory perceptions that affected such faculties. Thus, the mind was not a perfectly receptive organ. However, he also believed that pure empiricism, the idea that there was nothing other than experience of the immediate present, not to be perfectly valid either."More papers on The Kantian Inquiry System:
