Pihlström, Sami
Pragmatism and Philosophical Anthropology

Understanding Our Human Life in a Human World.

This study seeks to show, both historically and systematically, that the issue of «human nature» is (or at least should be) at the center of pragmatistic philosophizing. The author formulates a contemporary version of pragmatism largely based on William James's work, arguing that such a neo-Jamesian framework also can meet postmodernistic and irrationalistic threats.
