In this book, Robert B. Talisse advances a series of pragmatic arguments against Deweyan democracy. Drawing upon the epistemology of the founder of pragmatism, Charles S. Peirce, Talisse develops a conception of democracy that is anti-Deweyan but nonetheless pragmatist. The result is a new pragmatist option in democratic theory.
