The Revival of Pragmatism
The discussion explores the rise and fall of pragmatism, particularly its decline during the Cold War, where rigid principles dominated thought. As the world became more diverse post-Cold War, pragmatism saw a resurgence, only to fade again after significant events like 9/11 and the passing of influential thinkers. The conversation highlights the contingent nature of beliefs and how pragmatism adapts to societal contexts, suggesting that its relevance ebbs and flows with the intellectual climate.In this clip
