VALOR YEBENES, Juan Antonio. A pragmatist critique to modern philosophy "liquid reality". discus.filos [online]. 2011, vol.12, n.19, pp.199-220. ISSN 0124-6127.

Through a Rortyan reading of Peirce and Dewey, this article presents the pragmatist attempt to reconcile relativism, fallibilism, and objectivity. Dewey called the theory that makes them compatible: theory of truth as correspondence in an operational sense. Certainly, the transition from a correspondence theory in a representational sense, to a correspondence theory in an operational sense, requires a thorough review of the ontological and epistemological assumptions inherited from modernity. That review, which I will outline, is a priority in the pragmatist tradition.

Palavras-chave : Dewey; doubt; modernity; Pierce; pragmatism; liquid reality.
