It was first awarded in 1983 "for a scientific work of international significance supported by philosophical spirit".[1] The Karl Jaspers Prize was initially endowed with 5,000 euros, though since 2013 this has increased to €25,000. Next to the Friedrich Nietzsche Prize it is one of the highest awards in Germany awarded exclusively for philosophical achievements.
