I have a test on Kant's Universal History, Perpetual Peace, and Groundworks. He is so confusing... I have tried to understand the flow of his thoughts but I have eventually gotten myself more lost. Does anyone understand him in a way that would be accessible for a non-philosopher like myself? I just need a quick summary of his thoughts so when I re-read the works I understand what he is essentially proving. THANKS!

Is this homework?

Kant: Judgments (http://www.philosophypages.com/hy/5f.htm#intro)
Here is a simpler version of his views.

No... I have test on the philosophical development of thought on Globalization. There are over thirteen philosophers I need to know, and the only one I am really struggling with is Kant.
