1. 1. The Pragmatic Turn

   

   Aimed at charting a shift in contemporary thought, the book argues that pragmatism offers a middle way between rigid foundationalism and radical relativism by emphasizing inquiry, practice, and fallible, historically situated knowledge; it reconstructs classical pragmatic themes—truth as a regulative, social achievement, the primacy of ongoing communal inquiry, and the need for critical, democratic deliberation—while diagnosing and responding to challenges from both analytic philosophy and postmodern skepticism, ultimately proposing a reconstructive, dialogical philosophy that grounds normative standards in intersubjective practice rather than absolute first principles.
