b. Originally and chiefly in Kantian philosophy: (of an idea, principle, maxim, etc.) that governs or directs rational inquiry or action despite being incapable of objective justification. Frequently opposed to constitutive.For Kant, in his Critique of Pure Reason, transcendental Ideas (e.g., the world, the soul, God) have a legitimate and indispensable ‘regulative’ use. For example, he held that the Idea of the world as the complete totality of phenomena serves to direct the mind to seek ever greater systematic unity in its empirical knowledge, but that to suppose such Ideas capable of a ‘constitutive’ use, one that could provide theoretical knowledge of metaphysical objects beyond the reach of experience, is an illusion that leads reason into self-contradiction.
