Building a Social Democracy offers an alternative intellectual
history of American pragmatism, one that tries to reclaim the
middle of the twentieth century in order to push neo-pragmatism
beyond its philosophical limitations. Danisch argues that the major
entailment of the invention of American pragmatism at the beginning
of the twentieth century is that rhetorical practices are the
rightful object of study and means of improving democratic life.
Pragmatism entails a commitment to rhetoric. Rhetorical pragmatism
is intended to be more faithful to the project of first generation
pragmatism, to offer insight into the ways in which rhetoric
operates in contemporary democratic cultures, to recommend
practices, methods, and modes of action for improving contemporary
democratic cultures, and to subordinate philosophy to rhetoric by
reimagining appropriate ways for pragmatist scholarship and social
research to advance.
