The article argues that Kant’s argument for ownership entails a standard of meaningful use by which property regimes can be evaluated: a regime must make it possible for usable objects to be meaningfully used. A particular form of fully communal ownership can satisfy this standard. Further, this form of communal ownership is compatible with Kantian freedom more broadly. I conclude that, if this is so, there is a great deal of space for further consideration of the rightfulness of diverse regimes of ownership and exchange within a Kantian framework.

公社所有制与康德的权利理论

这篇文章认为，康德关于所有权的论证需要一个标准有意义的使用可以通过哪些财产制度来评估：制度必须使可用对象能够被有意义地使用。一种特定形式的完全公有制可以满足这一标准。此外，这种公有制形式更广泛地与康德式的自由相容。我的结论是，如果是这样，那么在康德的框架内进一步考虑各种所有权和交换制度的正当性还有很大的空间。
