• The article proposes the hypothesis of a modal turn in Kant’s critical corpus, determining the crucial role of transcendental philosophy both for the development of a new critical ontology and for the attempt at its supercritical radicalization. The modal hypothesis in question is essentially a reversal of the modal convention in the most significant vein of contemporary ontological projects, which privileges possibility at the expense of reality or action, of potentia at the expense of actualitas – a vein I have earlier defined as ontology of potentiality. The modal reversal to which the proposed radicalization of transcendental philosophy will seek to contribute affirms a radical alternative. In stark contrast to the ontologies of potentiality, it will be argued that the modality of necessity is essential for an ontology of existence based upon the idea of freedom. The fundamental connection between freedom and necessity established by Kant, allowing the transition from theoretical to practical philosophy, mobilizes the attempt to radicalize transcendental philosophy along the line of modal ontology of existence.
