Consequently, universalists may be tempted to push Kant's thinking to greater critical examination of ‘the human' and its properties. However, such a move to more theoretical rigour in critique only solidifies the subversive statism of Kant's apparent universalism, as long as it remains embedded in his prior theory of critical philosophy that privileges a singular form of reason. Universalist theories of human rights can break with this contradiction only insofar as they also displace the right to philosophy from the subject and site of ‘civil' man to a politics of theory where no such subject or site is guaranteed.
