Bernstein offers a historical and systematic reconstruction of pragmatism, one of the most influential philosophical movements of recent centuries. The author traces its evolution from the classical founders, such as Charles S. Peirce, William James, and John Dewey, to its most prominent contemporary representatives, including Hilary Putnam, Richard Rorty, and Robert Brandom. Through this journey, the work demonstrates that pragmatism is not merely a chapter in the history of philosophy, but a living and central perspective in current debates on language, truth, objectivity, and democracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book analyzes the development of pragmatism in depth, connecting its 19th-century roots with its relevance in 21st-century philosophy. Bernstein examines the contributions of the foundational thinkers and shows how their ideas have been taken up and transformed by figures such as Wilfrid Sellars, Hilary Putnam, Richard Rorty, John McDowell, and Robert Brandom. Throughout its pages, central themes are explored, such as the nature of language, the pursuit of truth, the meaning of objectivity, and the foundations of democracy. The work places pragmatism in dialogue with other contemporary philosophical currents, such as analytic philosophy, phenomenology, hermeneutics, critical theory, and post-structuralism, demonstrating its capacity to intervene in the most pressing philosophical problems of our time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHistorical reconstruction of classical pragmatism (Peirce, James, Dewey).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eAnalysis of contemporary neo-pragmatist philosophy (Sellars, Putnam, Rorty, McDowell, Brandom).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRelationship between pragmatism, language, and truth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eDebate on objectivity and democracy from a pragmatist perspective.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eDialogue between pragmatism and analytic philosophy, phenomenology, and critical theory.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at students and professionals of philosophy interested in contemporary thought, as well as readers with a background in the humanities who wish to understand the evolution and currency of pragmatism.
