What is What Is Orientation in Dignitarian Thinking? Self, Other, Time and Space about?

Drawing upon Kant's analysis of the role of intuitions in our orientation towards knowledge, this paper analyses four points of departure in thinking about dignity: self, other, time and space. Each reveals a core area of normative discourse -authenticity in the self, respect for the other, progress through time and authority as the government of space -along with related grounds of resistance to dignity. The paper concludes with a discussion of the methodological challenge presented by our different dignitarian intuitions, in particular the role of universality in testing and cohering our intuitions.
