Why Positive Duties cannot Be Derived from Kant’s Formula of Universal Law

Ever since Hegel famously objected to Kant’s universalization formulations of the Categorical Imperative on grounds that they are nothing but an empty formalism, there has been continual debate about whether he was right. In this paper I argue got things at least half-right: even if negative duties can be derived from formulations, positive cannot. The is divided into three main sections. first, set out procedures generally accepted among Kantians for deriving formulations. second, arguments section 1 in more detail and explain why do not work. third, examine a strategy might used supplement 2 it goes same way.
