Summary
Public use of reason is essential to Kant's idea of a republic: to cooperate wittingly to achieve just ends, to debunk unjust political plans such as war. This gives some context to Kant's limited notion of copyright as only affecting authorization to speak (print books) and not other works, and not as a limitation on any private or derivative uses, see Freedom, ownership and copyright: why does Kant reject the concept of intellectual property?
