Richard J. Bernstein argues that despite the apparent chaotic debates about naturalism, there has recently been a series of powerful arguments that support a version of naturalism that is in the spirit of John Dewey's pragmatic naturalism. After presenting a sketch of Dewey's pragmatic naturalism, he critically examines the works of a variety of thinkers-Robert Brandom, John McDowell, Richard Rorty, Wilfrid Sellars, Peter Godfrey-Smith, Philip Kitcher, Bjorn Ramberg, David Macarthur, Steven Levine, Mark Johnson, Robert Sinclair, Huw Price, and Joseph Rouse-to show how they have contributed analytic finesse to the articulation of Dewey's vision of pragmatic naturalism. As Bernstein shows, Dewey's philosophical legacy is very much alive today in some of the best recent philosophic discussions.Richard J. Bernstein is Vera List Professor of Philosophy at The New School for Social Research, New York.
