Beschreibung

The textual and contextual connections between John Rawlss intellectual figure and American pragmatism (broadly conceived) have become topics of discussion only recently. This is at least in part due to the fact that Rawls seemed to have taken a pragmatic turn in his intellectual trajectoryfrom A Theory of Justice (1971) to Political Liberalism (1993). John Rawls and American Pragmatism: Between Engagement and Avoidance intervenes in these discussions with two unconventional claims corroborated by archival research. First, Daniele Botti shows that Rawlss thinking owes more to the American pragmatists views than is generally recognized. Second, and in the light of the pragmatist sources of Rawlss thinking, Botti argues that we should reverse the common narrative about Rawlss alleged pragmatic turn and interpret it as a quite un-pragmatic one. By making the case for interpreting Rawls as an American pragmatist, this book profoundly transforms not only a widely held interpretation about Rawlss intellectual trajectory, but also our understanding of American philosophical vicissitude in the second half of the twentieth century.
