Contemporary Pragmatism 2
Covers pragmatism and philosophy.
Pragmatism and Environmentalism
The growing literature on Environmental Ethics has ballooned into a separate sub-field within philosophy, involving ethical studies concerning the value of other species, of ecosystems, and of the environment of all living things as a whole. Some consider Environmental Ethics to be a revolution in ethics which will completely change the human-centered orientation of morals and reorient it to include all species, ecosystems or the larger biosphere. This volume explores pragmatist approaches to ethics that can be used for environmental issues. Pragmatism may provide both a more defensible theory of non-anthropomorphic and intrinsic value than other ethical schools, and, more generally, supply an alternative model of what environmental philosophy could be. The holism of pragmatists constitutes a challenge to value and ethics centered in the individual, and a useful ground for more holistic theories of value which, some have argued, is more suitable to an environmental, as opposed to a humane, ethic. The authors of this bookOCOs chapters defend their understandings of pragmatism in the course of explaining contemporary ways to reconstruct central foundations to environmental ethics."
Democratic Experimentalism
This volume focuses on democratic experimentalism, gathering a collection of original and previously unpublished essays focusing upon its major outlines, as well as specific aspects ¿ both promising and troublesome - of this theoretical approach. Together these essays offer conceptions of democracy and democratic governance that emphasize and highlight experimentalist aspects of pragmatic thought, particularly Deweyan pragmatism, and its relationship to instantiation in concrete social and political institutions. Issues of democratic governance, political organization and the relationship of law to democracy are analyzed.

Utopía y Praxis Latinoamericana. Año 24, nº EXTRA 1. Interlocuciones, 2019
Pensar la filosofía desde América Latina no ha sido en los últimos años una tarea coyuntural para posicionar movimientos filosóficos o categorías novedosas. Pensar la filosofía desde América Latina ha sido una actitud insurgente ante la vida y ante imposiciones coloniales y culturales que nuestra región ha tenido como herencia por ser, en otro tiempo histórico, el campo ideal para prácticas de dominio y de subordinación. En ese sentido, quien piensa la filosofía desde América Latina no es un filósofo más, y quien transciende su discurso dentro de la filosofía latinoamericana tendrá que ser recordado más que como filósofo, como un ser humano digno de la humanidad. Sobre todo, porque la filosofía latinoamericana se ha caracterizado por ser un espacio donde se defiende el derecho a la vida y a la humanidad, y quien, dentro de ese espacio pueda hacer transcender su discurso, tendrá que ser un ser humano con una inmensa sensibilidad emocional, una conciencia humana impermutable y una capacidad intelectual admirable.
