In the Transcendental Deduction of the categories, it is not entirely clear what Kant means by ‘subjective unity of consciousness’, in contrast to ‘objective unity’, and this causes confusions in the interpretation of his theory of judgment. In this paper I will show that both, the subjective unity of consciousness and the original-synthetic unity of apperception, must be understood as prior and condition of possibility of all judgment. This interpretation attempts to show, through such considerations, the difference between the ‘recognition in the concept’ and the ‘objective unity’ in the judgment as determined in §19.
