Descrição: [...]he divides his book into two parts, the first concerned with rethinking the pragmatist heritage in light of contemporary cultural critiques, and the second with shedding a pragmatist light on certain vexing, contemporary critical problems. 5. [...]a third contingent conception, that of community, seems in Rorty's account to be curiously resistant to the rediscription that Rorty sees as the only remaining object of speculative thought. [...]the project of social restructuring is but poorly served by the thinkers who have shown "how the languages of moral responsibility and social purpose are always contingent" (102).
