"What is to be human?", this question Kant already asked himself hundreds of years ago. And exactly this question, the philosopher Markus Gabriel raises again in his new book, “Der Mensch als Tier” (“The Human animal - Why we still do not fit into nature”). Because it is on this question, or rather its answer, that our life depends on. Why, the author explains in this podcast episode, which was recorded on the 26th of October 2022 during a live event at THE NEW INSTITUTE in Hamburg.
