Trust Me, I'm a Pragmatist: A Partially Pragmatic Critique of Pragmatic Activism

摘要

Pragtivists do not claim to adopt philosophically pragmatic ground rules for their efforts, so it is not entirely fair to critique their work only as divergent from philosophical principles. For that matter, pragtivists do not even claim that, in using the word "pragmatic," they are adopting any consistent meaning or implying a unique brand of activism. Nevertheless, as I hope this Article shows, there is indeed a style of practice attached to pragtivism, and that style deserves more rigorous attention.
