Filosofia da práxis e (neo)pragmatismo

is part of Revista Brasileira de Educação , 29 , May-August, 2005 , pp. 28 - 39

This article constitutes a counterpoint to those interpretations which provide evidence of the convergence between the philosophy of praxis and (neo)pragmatism. Although it does not ignore some points of contact between the two conceptions, by rescuing the philosophy of praxis outlined by Gramsci, it reveals the profound divergence between this and American pragmatism. It then analyses the philosophy of Rorty which seeks to construct links between pragmatism, especially that of Dewey, and post-modern thought. Diverse contradictions present in the writings of Rorty are emphasised: its utility for the dominant discourse and the opposing project of society with respect to the political pedagogical proposals which derive from the philosophy of praxis and which have undergone processes of renewal in Brazil and Latin America.
