 After 1900, however, Windelband’s position on the question of world-views changes. He now claims that it is the aim of philosophy to provide a “world-view” with scientific justification (1907: 1). Given that Windelband holds that philosophy in general and the Kantian project in particular need to be adapted to the developing circumstances of time and culture, this change of position is not inconsequential: the cultural landscape of the early 1900s demands a revision of the neo-Kantian project that highlights not only its “negative” and critical aspects, but also develops its positive implications for cultural life (1907, 8). The shift to a more positive attitude towards philosophy as a world-view corresponds to a re-evaluation of Kant’s oeuvre, in which Windelband at least partly suspends the anti-metaphysical rigor of the “third phase” of the genesis of the Critique of Pure Reason, and attributes more relevance to the Critique of the Power of Judgment. This view is taken up by Rickert, who later argues in more detail that the third Critique forms the core of critical philosophy, and that Kant’s metaphysical project can provide the basis for an encompassing theory of world-views (Rickert 1924: 153–168).
