Daniele Botti

John Rawls and American Pragmatism

Between Engagement and Avoidance

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Daniele Botti argues that John Rawls's philosophy is importantly connected with classical American pragmatism and that Rawls's intellectual trajectory did not take a "pragmatic turn" in the 1980s but possibly an "un-pragmatic" one. Both claims go against conventional wisdom, and Botti corroborates them with archival research.
