This theory distinguishes between (in my terms) 'transcendental' and 'immanent' virtues, a distinction that answers the initial worries by reconciling the thesis about the dependency of practical reason on conditioned frameworks with the philosophical ideals of critique, universality, and realism with respect to practical knowledge.	cache/9019s18048r.txt	txt/9019s18048r.txt
