Abstract
The kingdom of ends is one of a handful of concepts that Kant describes as an ‘ideal’ in his ethical writings. This chapter uses contemporary accounts of imagination in order to explain how imaginative engagement with the kingdom of ends (and other Kantian moral ideals) can help to coordinate other parts of our moral psychology with what reason requires of us. In particular, imaginative immersion with an ideal of the moral community can serve to channel our social desires and improve our deliberation.
