Description
Summary:This article constitutes a counterpointto those interpretations which provide evidence of the convergence between the philosophy of praxis and(neo)pragmatism. Al though it does notig nore some points of contact between the two conceptions, by rescuing the philosophy of praxis outlined by Gramsci, it reveals the profound divergence between this and American pragmatism. It then analyses thephilosophy of Rorty which seeks to construct links between pragmatism, especially that of Dewey, and post-modern thought. Diverse contradictions present in the writing sof Rorty are emphasised: its utility forthe dominant discourse and theopposing project of society withrespect to the political pedagogical proposals which derive from thephilosophy of praxis and which have undergone processes of renewal in Brazil and Latin America.
