Pragmatism has enjoyed a revival of sorts in the latter part of the 20th century, but precisely what constitutes pragmatism remains a matter of some dispute. In reconstructing the pragmatic tradition in political philosophy, Matthew Festenstein rejects the idea that it is a single, cohesive doctrine. His analysis seeks to bring out the commonalities and shared concerns among contemporary pragmatists while also making clear their differences in how they would resolve those concerns. The study begins with the work of John Dewey and the moral and psychological conceptions that shaped his philosophy. Festenstein lays out the major philosophical issues with which first Dewey and then his heirs, would grapple. The second part of the text traces how Dewey's approach has been differently developed, especially in the work of three contemporary pragmatic thinkers: Richard Rorty, Jurgen Habermas, and Hilary Putnam.
