They achieve impressive clarity in their account of the relations of pragmatism to constructivism as it developed in the Twentieth Century.\" -- -John Lachs Vanderbilt University This book originated in a conference at the University of Cologne in 2001. It consists of a series of essays discussing the relationship between John Dewey's pragmatism and German constructivism. The latter bears many similarities to certain strains of 20th-century French thought--that of Michel Foucault in particular. Like French poststructuralism, constructivism has roots in German phenomenology, but it derives from other traditions as well. The contributions by Reich (U. Cologne) and Kenneth W. Stikkers (Southern Illinois U.--Carbondale) detail various aspects of this history, while the contributions of Hickman (SIU--Carbondale), Jim Garrison (Virginia Tech), and Neubert (U. Cologne) focus on Dewey's work. Part 2 discusses the legacy of Dewey for both constructivism and pragmatism. Hickman's second contribution raises some doubts about the constructivist project, claiming that it has become another variety of cognitive relativism, similar to French postmodernism or American neopragmatist thought. The collection concludes with an edited e-mail discussion among the contributors. This book will be useful for scholars researching the contemporary relevance of Dewey's thought and pragmatism more generally, both in the US and in Europe. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-level undergraduates through faculty\/researchers. -Choice \"This tidy volume marks a milestone in the ongoing efforts of Larry Hickman to advocate for Deweyan pragmatism as a world philosophy. Like John Dewey himself-a social and political reformer on the international stage-Dewey's version of pragmatism is transactional, pluralistic, and resolutely cosmopolitan. In this tightly integrated collection of essays, a team of American and German educators place pragmatism and the Cologne-style interactive constructivism in dialog, and serving as an object lesson in itself for both approaches, provide a compelling argument for the international relevance of an always contemporary pragmatism. \" -- -Roger T.

Lauded when it was first published and even more relevant today, Habits of Whiteness offers a distinctive way to talk about race and racism by focusing on racial habits and how to change them.   Author Terrance MacMullan examines how the concept of racial whiteness has undermined attempts to create a truly democratic society in the United States. By getting to the core of the racism that lives on in unrecognized habits, MacMullan argues that it is possible for white people to recognize the distance between their color-blind ideals and their actual behavior. Revitalizing the work of W. E. B. Du Bois and John Dewey, MacMullan demonstrates how it is possible to reconstruct racial habits and close fissures between people. This second edition of Habits of Whiteness also contains a new introduction, which looks closely at race relations during \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn his autobiography, Malcolm X issued a challenge to 'well-meaning' whites to work within their own communities to solve the problem of racism. A growing body of scholarship by white theorists on white privilege reflects an effort to do just this. In \u003ci\u003eHabits of Whiteness\u003c\/i\u003e, MacMullan (Eastern Washington Univ.) brings a fresh perspective to this ongoing discussion. In seeking to answer the question of why racism lingers in a society where the vast majority of whites profess a belief in the equality of all races, MacMullan employs John Dewey's pragmatic model to identify racism as a habit. As such, it is a 'pre-reflective cognitive or behavioral practice'—natural and invisible. The work of Du Bois, whom MacMullan considers a pragmatist, provides the basis for his substantive critique of white racism. MacMullan's aim, however, is not merely to identify the nature of the problem, but to offer hope of a resolution. Dewey's interactionist model of knowledge allows MacMullan to posit a reconstruction of the habits of whiteness, replacing them with positive contributions to the world—unique 'cultural gifts' identified by Du Bois as possessed by each race, including whites.

The conference gathered women and non-binary scholars from twelve different countries. This was the first pragmatist conference organized entirely by women and non-binary persons. It has initiated a stable network of mentoring and support analogous to other women philosophers’ organizations. The book provides paths to reconstruct the roots of pragmatism, integrating the works of women pragmatists of the past and linking them to the current developments of feminist and pragmatist topics. Scholars of different countries, status, and backgrounds serve as a powerful example of the trend toward interdisciplinary cooperation and versatility we might expect for the future of pragmatism.

At these borderlands, he discerns the emergence of an attitude of resistance to the attitudes of European colonialism. This new attitude drove commitments to interaction, pluralism, community, and growth, the core of pragmatic thought. He plumbs Native American thought for sources of these commitments; he argues for the influence of a Native Prophetic movement on Benjamin Franklin, whose ideas in turn influenced the initial formulation of pragmatism by Peirce and James. He also asserts a prominent role for Native thought in the development of the women's movement. Readers may be skeptical regarding the extent to which Native thought shaped pragmatism, and Pratt admits that his volume is not intended as a comprehensive history, but rather as an additional perspective.

The author obviously has command of a wide range of theoretical and practical resources-including not only philosophy, its history and American philosophy in particular, but, also, the arts, the natural and social sciences, and political theory. He makes effective use of this vast arsenal of resources to advance his perspective and satisfactorily accomplish the mission of the book. His illustrations and practical examples, across all the above-mentioned fields and practices, give the distinct impression of a well-seasoned thinker who, in this work, is putting years of experience, accumulated wisdom and insight to work, provocatively and effectively.\" -- -Richard E. Hart Bloomfield College \"In this thought-provoking volume, John Ryder defends an original version of pragmatic naturalism that has a rich yet partly neglected history. He reintroduces the tradition of 'Columbia Naturalism' - not only the relatively well-known naturalism defended by John Dewey but also the less well-known views of thinkers like Justus Buchler - and especially its theory of relationality, as well as the many promising applications of that theory not only in ontology and epistemology but also in ethics and political philosophy. Ryder thereby vigorously challenges both the post-linguistic-turn 'new pragmatisms' and the reductive forms of naturalism dominating the philosophical mainstream today. This is pragmatically naturalistic philosophy at its best: pluralistic, fallibilistic, and open-minded.\" -- -Sami Pihlstrom University of Jyvaskyla \"In this well-crafted volume John Ryder makes a strong and elegant case for a version of philosophical naturalism that avoids reductive materialism and builds on the best ideas of both modernism and postmodernism. Expanding on the insights of John Dewey, John Herman Randall, Jr., and Justus Buchler, among others, he constructs a muscular naturalism that is fully capable of producing salutary and enduring effects in the areas of religion, the arts, and political life.\" -- -Larry A.
