Two Other Formulations of
Kant’s Categorical Imperative

The Autonomy formulation:

So act that your will can regard itself at the same time as making universal law through its maxim.

The Kingdom of Ends formulation:

So act as if you were always through your maxims a law-making member in a universal kingdom of ends.
