COMMUNITY RECONSTRUCTS cover

Explores the Pragmatists' contributions to American social thought

In The Community Reconstructs
  James Campbell explores the Pragmatists' contributions to American social
  thought, drawing upon the writings of William James, John Dewey, George Herbert
  Mead, James Hayden Tufts, and their various critics. He explores the Pragmatic
  analysis of society's potential for ongoing intelligent inquiry and cooperative
  evaluation to address social ills. Campbell also considers the nature of political
  language, the relative importance of the moral and political values of liberty
  and equality, and the vital role of commitment to the life of a democratic community.
 

"A concise and reliable guide to the essentials of pragmatic social thought and an effective brief for a paleopragmatic reading of William James, Dewey, and George Herbert Mead." Transactions of the C.S. Peirce Society
