 Cohen’s interpretation of Kant is thus robustly anti-psychologistic: he thinks any consideration of how the human mind operates to produce representations is completely irrelevant to a philosophical account of knowledge’s objective validity. In fact, some commentators have argued that Cohen offers the first genuinely anti-psychologistic interpretation of Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason (Hatfield 1990, 110; Anderson 2005, 298; and Beiser 2015, 466). On a standard account, Cohen’s anti-psychologism was motivated, most fundamentally, by a desire to ensure that the objective validity of knowledge was not, on his account, undermined by the subjectivity of sensation (see especially Edel 2010: 60ff). More recently, Beiser has argued that Cohen’s anti-psychologism was a response to the materialism controversy and Cohen’s religious antipathy to any attempt to naturalize the human subject (Beiser 2014, 466). Alternatively, Paul Nahme has suggested that Cohen’s anti-psychologism might even have been a response to the physiological orientation of so-called scientific racists and anti-Semites (Nahme 2019, 163).
